Boko
Haram militants in northeast Nigeria have renamed the town of Mubi,
which they recently captured. They have called it Madinatul Islam or
City of Islam. They seized Mubi - a commercial hub and the second
largest town in Adamawa state - at the
end of last month, after clashes with government forces. The government
had previously announced a ceasefire agreement with Boko Haram that was
supposed to lead to the release of more than two hundred kidnapped
schoolgirls. In August the group declared a caliphate or Islamic state
in areas it controls in the northeast.
