The attack was suspected to have been carried out by terror group, Boko Haram. Cameroonian troops form part of an 8,700-strong regional force created to battle Boko Haram. The United States recently disclosed plans to send military supplies and troops to the Central African country to aid the fight. “The suicide attack took place at 5.40am (04.40 GMT) in a mosque at Kouyape. There were 13 deaths, including the man, who blew himself up and one wounded,” said a senior local official, who declined to be identified. The suicide bomber, who struck at the mosque, was said to be praying alongside worshippers when he blew himself up, a security source told AFP. “Twelve worshippers were killed at the scene. Another died of his wounds in the hospital,” the source added. The bombing came after two people were killed overnight in the same area in another attack. Another source close to the security services confirmed that the blast killed 13 persons including the bomber.
