the city of Bauchi. The AP journalist said the blast occurred at St.
John's Catholic Church in the city.

occurred during an early morning Mass.

known as Boko Haram has attacked churches throughout Nigeria's north

680 killings this year alone in Nigeria, according to an AP count.When will boko haram surrender their arsenals. whats up with my fatherland..
