A su***de bomber on Sunday rammed his car into a military checkpoint in Borno state near the border with Cameroon killing three soldiers in an attack blamed on Boko Haram, residents said.

AFP reported that three other soldiers were also injured in the early morning attack in Gwoza town, a resident, Dahiru Yunusa, told AFP.

“It was a su***de attack by a man believed to be a Boko Haram (member) who drove his car into the checkpoint and killed three soldiers,” Yunusa said. “The huge blast which was heard throughout the town.”

The attack in Gwoza, 100 kilometres (60 miles) from state capital Maiduguri, happened when the bomber rammed his explosives-laden car into the checkpoint outside a secondary school in the town that has come under repeated attack by the insurgents, leaving dozens dead.

It occurred around 7:00 am (0600 GMT) but the news of the incident took several hours to emerge due to the area’s poor telephone network following the destruction of telecom masts in previous Boko Haram attacks.

Musa Buzu, another resident who gave a similar account, said the military cordoned off the scene of the blast until 4:00 pm.

Residents thronged the scene to look at the mangled remains of the car used by the su***de bomber, Buzu said.

“The town was still asleep when the su***de bomber attacked the checkpoint with a deafening explosion that awoke the whole town,” he said.

Military spokesmen were not available to comment on the attack.

Last month, the traditional monarch of Gwoza, Idrissa Timta, was killed when Boko Haram gunmen ambushed the convoy of three emirs on their way to the funeral of another influential emir.

The Islamist group has been terrorising Nigeria with almost daily attacks in recent weeks as part of a bloody five-year insurgency that has already claimed thousands of lives.
Militants often use Cameroon as a staging post to launch attacks and kidnappings in Nigeria as the border is extremely porous, with no buffer-zone clearly separating the two countries.
When leaving Cameroon, the boundary is marked by a simple iron bar followed by a sign announcing the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
A Cameroonian army officer pointed out a house that literally straddled the border. “Look at this house. The living room is in Cameroon, but the other rooms are in Nigeria,” he said.
Further complicating the operation is that Boko Haram has infiltrated families: “In the same family you can find honest people but also Boko Haram members,” Foumane said.
“Our greatest challenge is to win people’s confidence so they will report the bad apples. But how can you expect a parent to hand over his son, or a youth to turn in his brother?”
The situation also makes it easy for the Islamists to work their way into Amchide, a police officer with long experience in the area said on condition of anonymity.
He described them as ruthless, with beatings and blackmail in their arsenal.
For them, “anything goes in Amchide”, he said. “They have offered money to youths to rally them to their cause, and they have coerced the more fearful ones into joining them.”
He said the Boko Haram infiltrators have also developed alliances with businesses and “forced others to finance their activities”.
Since Boko Haram began its deadly campaign, the Cameroonian city has become a hub of trafficking — in weapons, cars or manufactured goods — which the Nigerian extremists use to finance their recruitment.
Amchide has also been a staging ground for attacks on Banki.
“We have faced Boko Haram actions since 2009,” Foumane said, adding that the menace finally prompted the army to deploy the elite BIR to the border area.
He described Amchide as a forward base under the control of the Cameroonian army, while many other military bases have been set up in the far northern region.
The police officer said the army was “cleaning up” Amchide. “Several dozen” people, either suspected Islamists or businessmen suspected of collaborating with them, have been arrested, he said.
“The wave of arrests continues,” he added.
“The BIR guys are working day and night. They are purging the city. There were too many bad people,” a customs officer said, also requesting anonymity. “The Islamists are dispersing little by little to the villages.”
Some residents hailed the military operation.
“Before there were a lot of bad people. Now they are hunting them,” an elderly man said.
But the soldiers deployed here, facing frequent harassment from the insurgents, know their mission is far from over. “A Boko Haram member is never far away,” a top army officer said.

Cameroon, stepping up its cooperation with Nigeria against the deadly Islamist campaign by Boko Haram insurgents, is working to rout them from a key stronghold in a remote northern border region.
Amchide, a city in the far north of Cameroon near the Nigerian town of Banki, has become a hotbed for fighters from the extremist group — one police officer estimates they account for 90 percent of the population.
“Amchide is Boko Haram’s local fiefdom,” said Lieutenant-Colonel Thierry Foumane, the regional commander of Cameroon’s Rapid Intervention Battalion (BIR), an elite army unit recently deployed to the remote area.
Cameroon, like other countries in the region, has greatly stepped up its operations against Boko Haram since the April kidnapping of more than 200 schoolgirls in northern Nigeria sparked international outrage.

A senior Nigerian military officer has just confirmed to newsmen that more than twenty people have died in a fresh attack by gunmen in the troubled southern Kaduna area. Earlier today, It had been reported that at least 40 people were killed in three villages in the Sanga local government area of Kaduna State.
According to our military source, the latest attack occurred in a village in the same area called Kobin. “Our information is that the attackers came around 1:20 p.m. in the afternoon and started killing left and right,” said the officer. He added that the attackers retreated once a contingent of the military showed up in the beleaguered town.
However, the source explained to our correspondent that the violence further escalated to another town, Gwantu. “Some people were killed in Gwantu, and their corpses are being taken into the mortuary,” the officer disclosed.
He stated that soldiers arrested some of the gunmen who were seen with various kinds of ammunition similar to the weapons seized from some of the gunmen arrested after their earlier deadly attack on three villages.

A state of emergency has not stemmed militant attacks
Suspected Boko Haram militants have launched an attack on a village near the north-eastern Nigerian city of Maiduguri, killing about 45 people.

The attackers told villagers they had come to preach before firing on a crowd that gathered, survivors told the BBC.

Separately, officials say up to 200 may have been killed in a wave of attacks in villages in the region this week.

Militants have frequently targeted remote areas since emergency rule was imposed a year ago in the north-east.

Nigeria's government has been facing growing pressure both at home and abroad to do more to tackle Boko Haram since militants kidnapped more than 200 schoolgirls in April.

The group has waged an increasingly bloody insurgency since 2009 in an attempt to create an Islamic state in Nigeria - and thousands of people have died in their attacks and the subsequent security crackdown.

Villagers 'tricked'

The attack on the village of Bardari, near the University of Maiduguri on the outskirts of the city, took place late on Wednesday.

The militants entered the village telling people to gather to hear them preach, but then turned their guns on the crowd
