Nigeria: Boko Haram Suspected in Blast That Killed Nearly 50 People 
--------------------------------------------------------------------


 
In news from Nigeria, an explosion in a market has killed nearly 50
people Tuesday in the northeastern town of Sabon Gari. No group has
claimed responsibility for the attack, although the U.S. State
Department says the blast occurred in a region that has faced a wave of
recent attacks by the militant group Boko Haram.
