(ANSA) - Rome, October 31 - At least eight people died
Friday in three explosions at a bus station in north-eastern
Nigeria.
Many people were injured in the rush-hour blast in Gombe
city.
Witnesses spoke of three bags of explosives going off.
Gombe shares a border with three states placed under
emergency rule to fight the Boko Haram Islamist insurgency.
The group has taken full control of Mubi, a commercial
centre in Adamawa.
It is the largest town Boko Haram has taken since it
stepped up its insurgency when the state of emergency was
declared in May 2013 in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe.
