At least 14 people are dead after a suicide bomber attacked a World Cup viewing site in northeast Nigeria.

The explosives were packed in a tricycle taxi and driven into the outdoor site in the capital of Yobe State.

No one claimed responsibility, but police suspect the radical Islamic Boko Haram terrorist group.

Boko Haram is waging war against the government in its efforts to establish an Islamic state in northern Nigeria.
