A suicide bomber in Maiduguri who confessed to being paid to attack worshippers. This appears to be referring to an incident related to the ongoing Boko Haram insurgency in northeastern Nigeria.

Maiduguri, the capital of Borno State, has been significantly affected by the Boko Haram insurgency for over a decade. The group has frequently targeted places of worship, markets, and public gatherings in their campaign of violence.

Without more context about the specific date or source of this news, I can share that:

1. Boko Haram has historically used financial incentives to recruit individuals, particularly vulnerable populations, to carry out attacks.
2. Suicide bombings targeting mosques and churches have been part of their tactics to create religious tensions and fear.
3. The Nigerian military and security forces have been working to counter these threats, though challenges remain.

Is there something specific about this incident you’d like to know more about? Or would you like information about the broader security situation in the region
