Series of blasts
at Nigerian bus stations kill at least 37 – report
A series of bomb
blasts at bus stations in Nigeria's northeastern city of Gombe have killed at
least 37 people, according to Al Jazeera sources. Meanwhile Reuters, citing a
Red Cross official, reported 29 killed and 60 injured. The first bomb was detonated
by a female suicide bomber as around 6:00pm GMT near the Dadin Kowa bus
terminal as people gathered to pray at a nearby mosque, Reuters reported.
Minutes later a second explosion happened near the same station. About an hour
later two more consecutive blasts occurred at the gate of the Duku bus station
and at market nearby. No one has immediately claimed responsibility for the
blasts, but similar attacks in the past have been blamed on the Boko Haram
terrorist group which is very active in the region. Last Friday at least 50
people were killed in a series of bombings at a market in the same city.
