B'Haram claims responsibility for Abuja blast



The leader of Boko Haram, Abubakar Shekau, claimed responsibility for a bombing in Abuja that killed at least 75 people in Abuja.  Agence France-Presse  last Sunday reports that Shekau made the claim in a video message it obtained on Saturday.
“We are the ones that carried out the attack in Abuja,” Shekau said in the 28-minute video, referring to the deadly attack in Nigeria’s capital which targeted a bus station packed with morning commuters.
Seated with a Kalashnikov resting on his left shoulder and dressed in military uniform, the insurgent commander spoke in both Arabic and the Hausa language that is dominant in northern Nigeria.
