The Kano State Police Command on Thursday
said it had defused “a high-calibre bomb”
discovered at the Dawanau International
Grains market, Kano.
The Police Commissioner, Aderenle Shinaba,
confirmed this while briefing journalists in
Kano.
Mr. Shinaba said the explosive, concealed in a
bag in the market, was defused successfully
by the personnel of the Anti-bomb Squad of
the command.
The commissioner, however, denied rumours
that a female suicide bomber who went to a
clinic for treatment was arrested.
He called on the people of the state to
continue to cooperate with security agencies
to enable them discharge their duties
effectively.
Two female suicide bombers had on
Wednesday detonated an explosive near the
Kantin Kwari International Textiles market in
the city, killing themselves and four others.
