Bomb blasts in Mubi town, Adamawa

The governor of Adamawa, Gov. Mohammed Bindow, on Wednesday called on residents of the state to donate blood to victims of Tuesday’s twin bomb blasts in Mubi.

Bindow made the appeal when he visited the victims of the blasts receiving treatment at the Federal Medical Centre, Yola.

Naija News gathered that the governor who commended security operatives for their quick response, implored the residents of the state to be vigilant and ensure they report any suspicious movement in their vicinity.

The Chief Medical Director of the hospital, Prof. Aural Mohammad said that the management of the facility had mobilised enough personnel to cater for victims.

According to him, those responding to the victims, included corps members, Red Cross officials and retired nurses.

Mohammad, who conducted the governor round the hospital, said one of the victims out of the 10 brought to the facility, died on the way.

He, however, said that the remaining nine were responding to treatment.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that two suicide bombers had attacked a used clothes market and a mosque in Mubi, killing many and leaving several others injured.
