President Goodluck Jonathan vows
to defeat Boko Haram
Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan has vowed to defeat
militant group Boko Haram, after a series of attacks blamed on the group in
recent weeks.
Earlier on Thursday, at least 10 people were injured by a suicide bomber
near a church in Gombe, north-east Nigeria.On Wednesday, 11 people were killed when a bomb went off on a bus heading from Gombe to neighbouring Yobe state.
Mr Jonathan said the group had caused "agony" in the country. They killed at least 2,000 civilians in 2014.
"I want to assure you that the terrorists will not get away with the atrocities, they will not win," Mr Jonathan said in his new year's address.
