FROM AFP:
Boko Haram invaded the restive northeastern Nigerian city of Gombe on Saturday and warned residents against voting in next month's elections as the Islamists defied regional force aiming to pursue them.

Residents said the attackers later left the city and stormed another area some 40 kilometres (25 miles) away, where they burned homes.

The violence prompted the state governor to impose an around-the-clock curfew.

Witnesses said the extremists stormed the city at around 9:00 am (0800 GMT) and advanced without any resistance from the security forces. It was unclear if there were casualties.

The Boko Haram fighters called on residents to boycott elections which had originally been planned to take place on Saturday before they were postponed until March 28.

"Whoever professes Islam should distance himself from polling stations because we are going to attack polling booths," read the Boko Haram leaflets.
