    Gunmen sprayed a mosque with bullets in Nigeria's biggest northern city of Kano on Friday, killing five worshippers, a police spokesman said.

Majiya Musa said the attackers were suspected to be from radical Islamist sect Boko Haram, which is waging an increasingly violent insurgency in the north of Africa's most populous country.

"They came on the back of a motorcycle and shot sporadically at worshippers this evening ... the situation is now under control. An investigation has been launched," he said. (Reporting by Bala Adamu; Writing by Tim Cocks; Editing by Sophie Hares)

STUPID COMMENTATORS! Because BOKO HARAM killed only Muslims (not both christians and Muslims) you refuse to comment and curse them. I use this medium to CURSE THEM on ur behalf.

America is behind BOKO HARAM! see Weelky Trust of 25th March, 2012

Thank God for my life! I don't insult anybody again - whether Hausa, Yoruba, Ibo or Niger-Deltan. I'm now a new creature, therefore Old things are passed away and all things have become new. Peace, My brothers and sisters in whatever religion you find yourselves!
