A bombing at a football match in Nigeria's restive northeast killed at least 40 people on Sunday in an area previously attacked by Boko Haram Islamists, theTimes of India reported. While there was no immediate claim of responsibility, Boko Haram is a prime suspect, local authorities said. The blast hit the town of Mubi in Adamawa state, one of three in the northeast that has been under a state of emergency for more than a year as Nigeria's military has tried to crush Boko Haram's five-year extremist uprising. The group is still holding more than 200 girls that it abducted on April 14.
