An explosion suspected to be
from an improvised Explosive Device, IED, has just occurred at a Motor Park in
Yola, Adamawa State in Nigeria.
A witness, Mohammed
Danasabe, told PREMIUM TIMES that
the explosion was so loud it could be heard all over the city.
He said many people were
killed, but could not give a figure.
“I am currently at the scene
and we are helping to evacuate injured to the Hospital, there are many dead
bodies all over the place,” he said.
The scene of the blast is
close to the main vegetable market in the town and the explosion occurred as
traders were closing for the day and rushing home, Mr. Dansabe said.
Yola has been hit by two
deadly bomb attacks this year, with more than 50 people killed.
The last attack occurred in
