Bomb Blast In Adamawa, Many Feared Dead

Several people are feared dead in an early morning bomb blast in Madagali town in Madagali Local Government Area of Adamawa.

An eye witness who simply identified himself as Baba, said the blast occurred near a checkpoint at the entrance of the town.

“The suicide bombers blew themselves up alongside the two vigilante members that approached them,” Baba said.

Speaking on the development, the member representing Madagali/Michika Federal Constituency, Mr Adamu Kamale, said he got the report but that the information showed that there was no death.

“Information available to me showed that there was no death in the blast, except that some people sustained injuries,” Kamale said.

He called for more deployment of troops to comb the Madagali axis of Sambisa which he said was still habouring insurgents.

When contacted, the Chairman of Madagali Local Government, Alhaji Yusuf Mohammed, also confirmed the incident but said he could not give details because he was not in town.

“I was outside the town for an official engagement but I was called and informed about the incident.
That is all I can tell you for now,” Mohammed said.

On Jan. 4, three female suicide bombers who were on their way to Gulak market in Madagali Local Government Area were intercepted by the vigilante.
