Boko Haram kills 23 mourners after Nigeria funeral
Boko Haram gunmen on Saturday killed 23 mourners in Borno state in Nigeria's restive northeast after they attended a funeral, local militia and residents said.
At around 1030 GMT, the attackers on three motorbikes opened fire on a group of men as they walked back from a funeral in Nganzai district near the state capital Maiduguri, local militia leader Bunu Bukar Mustapha said.
"Our men recovered 23 dead bodies from the scene of the attack, which happened this morning," Mustapha told AFP.
