The explosion occurred few hours after bandits invaded three communities in the state, few meters away from Galadima-Kogo.
Details of the attack were sketchy as of the time this report was filed, but the Co-Convener of Concerned Shiroro Youths, Abubakar Yusuf Kokki, said many people might have been killed in the incident.
