Reuters citing local officials reported that there was no immediate claim of responsibility but Boko Haram militants who have carried out strings of suicide bombings in northern Cameroon are blamed for the recent attacks.
Just three days ago four suicide bombers affiliated with the Boko Haram sect attacked a village in the country’s far north region on killing at least 25 people in one of the deadliest attacks the country has ever experienced.
Sequel to constant attacks by Boko Haram militants on both churches and mosques, Cameroonian Christians and Muslims have united to fight against what they call a common enemy.

Local vigilante groups also began assisting the government against increasing attacks by the sect, which has begun using female suicide bombers more often.
Boko Haram has been active in Cameroon for three years, looting, killing, and burning schools, markets and churches.
Meanwhile, the identity of one of the masterminds of the abduction of Chibok girls on April 14, 2014, will soon be made public subject to verification by the Nigerian Army.
Jarasu Shirawho, who is believed to be the sect leader around Damboa-Chibok-Askira axis of Borno state before he was apprehended last week in the state is believed to be one of the masterminds of the Chibok girls abduction.
