Up to 30 Dead as Female Suicide Bombers Target Nigeria Market

The military chief in Adamawa state, Brigadier-General Victor Ezugwu, confirmed the twin suicide blasts in the town of Madagali but did not give a toll.
"The two female bombers killed at least 30 people in the twin blasts in the market," Maina Ularamu, a community leader and former chairman of Madagali local government, told AFP.
