The leader of Nigeria’s Boko Haram Islamists has claimed
responsibility for a June 25 bombing in the capital Abuja and an attack the
same day at a fuel depot in Lagos, in a new video seen by AFP Sunday.
The authorities tried to cover up the Lagos attack,
describing it as an industrial accident, but an AFP
investigation revealed it was a deliberate explosion.
“I ordered (the bomber) who went and detonated it,” Abubakar
Shekau says of the Lagos bomb, while claiming responsibility for the “bomb in
filthy Abuja” that killed at least 22 people.
