According to Vanguard, the explosion was heard in the Nukkai axis, bordering the Ardo-Kola local government area of the state.
It was reported that the deadly device exploded at night at the time the town was in a blackout due to a power outage.
Confirming the incident, the spokesman of the state police command, DSP Abdullahi Usman who was contacted on the phone, told reporters that no fewer than nine people sustained various degrees of injuries from the explosion.
He, however, could not confirm if there was any casualty at the time.
Meanwhile, a source had reportedly told Vanguard that the explosion happened close to the Ward Head’s house where there is a local bar and its aftermath left cracks on the walls of buildings within the site.
