No group has taken responsibility for the attack, however, militants have a history of targeting mosques and crowded areas in Maiduguri through suicide bombings and improvised explosive device attacks.

The country was hit by several major kidnappings this November. In one incident, unmen stormed St. Mary’s Catholic School in Papiri, abducting more than 300 students and 12 teachers. The Christian Association of Nigeria announced in the same month that 50 students had escaped, while the others remain missing.
