A bomb explosion has rocked a car park outside a stadium in Gombe State shortly after President Goodluck Jonathan addressed a campaign rally at the stadium on Monday.
Eyewitnesses said the explosion occurred at around 3.10pm, few minutes after the president left the campaign venue.
“The president had just passed the parking lot and we were trailing behind his convoy when the explosion happened…. Just 100 meters from the bus we were driving in,” a journalist who witnessed the incident said.
