Christians given three days to flee Nigeria's north

[tabatha]

A purported spokesperson for Nigerian Islamist group Boko Haram has issued an ultimatum to Christians in the country's north and threatened troops after the president declared a state of emergency in hard-hit areas.

Meanwhile, Nigeria began sealing off part of its border in the country's north-east as part of the emergency declaration while security agencies plotted their next move in dealing with the Islamists.

Abul Qaqa, who has spoken on behalf of the group blamed for scores of attacks in Africa's most populous nation numerous times in the past, said he was giving southerners living in the north a three-day ultimatum to leave.
