Boko Haram  sent four suicide bombers to Fotokol, northern Cameroon today and after exploding themselves, they killed 10 people, injuring scores of others.

The usually reliable L’Oeil du Sahel said the incident happened at mid-day.

Fotokol, which has often been targeted by the militants, lies near the Nigerian border.

In Nigeria, there have been suicide bombings this week in Yola and Kano, with over 60 people killed.
