Nigeria: Deadly blast in Nigerian beer garden

At least five people have been killed in a bomb blast at a police beer garden in the troubled northeastern Nigerian city of Maiduguri, a military source and a witness said. Sunday evening's blast took place in the middle of a 'mammy market' near the police barracks in the Wulari area of the city. Mammy markets are open-air pubs and eateries found around police or military barracks and are open to both security personnel and civilians.
