Nairobi/Kaduna – Churches in predominantly-Muslim northern Nigeria have begun to install metal detectors amid the threat of bomb attacks, reports said Thursday.
The newspaper Next said worshippers in the Christian churches were also having their handbags searched for fear of explosives being smuggled in.
The measures come after a series of bombing attacks against churches in the region attributed to the radical Islamic group Boko Haram. Last Christmas Eve, more than 80 people were killed in various attacks.
