At least 48 people have been killed in the latest suspected assault from Nigeria’s Boko Haram. Three villages were attacked in overnight raids near Chibok, the town where the Boko Haram seized nearly 300 schoolgirls last month. They came just as the Boko Haram was accused of carrying out a twin bombing in the city of Jos that left at least 122 people dead. In the capital of Abuja, protesters rallying for the return of the kidnapped schoolgirls voiced concerns about growing insecurity.

Protester: “Can you tell me the reason why the same Chibok, the same Chibok that the whole world is mentioning the name as a result of abduction of 270-something girls from that same [area], yet they are experiencing another attack? And you tell me there’s a state of emergency? You tell me there is need for extension of state of emergency? And you tell me yet there are troops deployed there?”
