博科聖地宣佈效忠伊斯蘭國組織大綱

The militant Group Boko Haram has pledged allegiance to Islamic State, amid reports that a series of bombings has killed more than 50 people in Nigeria's Borno state where Boko Haram is active.

Jihadist monitoring group SITE on Saturday quoted Boko Haram as saying "We announce our allegiance to the Caliph" in a video purporting to be from the Nigerian rebel group.

Both groups seek to rule and impose their strict interpretations of Islamic law, and both have embraced using brutal tactics to achieve results.

Boko Haram is suspected carrying out several bomb attacks killing 50 people and wounding dozens more Saturday in Maiduguri, a city where it has strong influence.

After participating in a mock election Saturday, Nigerians upset with the government's handling of Boko Haram marched for better security and a fair presidential election late this month.

President Goodluck Jonathan has faced scathing criticism for his handling of Boko Haram and his inability to bring home hundreds of school girls kidnapped by the extremist more than a year ago.

Concern over Boko Haram's insurgency prompted election officials to postpone the presidential elections last month, delaying voters chance to select their next leader.

Officials and voters are hoping the militants don't disrupt the March 28 vote, despite their previous threats to cause trouble.激進組織博科聖地表示效忠於伊斯蘭國組織。有報道說，在博科聖地活躍的尼日利亞博爾諾州發生一系列炸彈襲擊，至少50人喪生。

觀察聖戰分子活動的組織SITE星期六援引來自博科聖地的消息說，博科聖地在一個據信該組織發佈的視頻中宣佈效忠於伊斯蘭國哈里發。

伊斯蘭國組織和博科聖地都試圖建立實行嚴格解釋伊斯蘭教義的統治，也都爲實現這一目的採取極爲殘暴的手法。

博科聖地被懷疑星期六在其具有影響力的邁杜古裏發動了若干炸彈襲擊，炸死50人，多人受傷。

與此同時，尼日利亞對政府應對博科聖地不力的民衆星期六舉行了一次模擬投票，並舉行遊行示威，要求改善保安和保證3月份總統大選的

公正。

尼日利亞總統古德勒克在應對博科聖地的問題上一直面臨嚴厲批評。他一直未能把激進分子一年前綁架的數百名學生解救回家。

尼日利亞官員處於對博科聖地暴力活動的擔心，上個月決定推遲選民可決定下一任總統的大選。

儘管博科聖地一再威脅要針對3月28號的大選製造麻煩，政府官員和選民仍然希望選舉不受到干擾。
