The Kano State Police Command has debunked reports making the rounds that there was a bomb explosion at Aba by Court road in Sabon Gari, Kano, and said it was a gas explosion instead.
According to the Kano Commissioner of Police, Sama’ila Shu’aibu Dikko, four people have so far been discovered dead while security personnel are trying to find the remaining victims of the incident.
“It is not bomb explosion; it’s a gas cylinder. There’s a gas welder here and he was the first victim of the situation.”
“As at now, one female and three males have been killed. All the security agencies are here. The Civil Defence, Brigade commander, Air force, myself and the director, DSS, are all on ground.
“We will extend our investigation and at the end of the day we will come out with exactly what happened,” said Dikko.
