Police announced the discovery of a Boko Haram plot to bomb motor parks in Abuja, the capital city. Boko Haram issued a video taking credit for recent bombings in Lagos that the government had blamed on gas leaks, mocking attempts to rescue the kidnapped schoolgirls, and stating support for the leaders of the Islamic State, al Qaeda, and the Taliban. Education activist Malala Yousafzai plans to visit Nigeria to campaign for the release of the kidnapped schoolgirls. Boko Haram bombers destroyed an important bridge on the Maiduguri-Damboa-Biu Road in northern Nigeria. Information Minister Maku noted that over the past two years terror attacks appear to have been timed to detract from positive news about the Jonathan administration.
