Nigerian newspaper Premium Times reports that that country's President, Muhammadu Buhari, has called on world leaders to come together to confront terrorism.
A statement said Friday's attack had underscored the need for "all peace-loving nations of the world to intensify ongoing multilateral co-operation and collaborative actions aimed at bringing the scourge of international terrorism to a speedy end for the benefit of all nations".
Nigeria has been fighting a violent jihadist insurgency in the north of the country, led by Boko Haram, which pledged allegiance to Islamic State (IS) earlier this year.
