A suicide bomber killed 13 people and wounded at least one at a mosque in Kouyape Kolofata, in northern Cameroon on Wednesday, officials in the Far North region said.

Kolofata had been attacked in the past by Boko Haram and its suicide bombers.

On Tuesday night, the insurgents with the ambition of creating an Islamic Republic in the Lake Chad region, also killed two persons, in another attack not far from the mosque, L’Oeil du Sahel said in a Facebook post today.
