Survivors of the Wednesday twin bomb blasts at the popular GSM Market in
Kano have recounted their ordeal. The suicide bombers killed about 18
people and injured 99, while property and goods worth millions of naira
were destroyed.
Eyewitness accounts stated that a Volkswagen Space Sharon vehicle dropped off the Hijab-wearing teenage girls and zoomed off. While one of them made straight for the heart of the ever busy market, the other headed for the roadside of the market. In the twinkling of an eye, the bombs went off; people died, some were injured and a heavy stampede ensued.
