A suspected suicide bomber who was on the move to
detonate his explosive device at the Yankari motor park in
Bauchi, Bauchi State, has been apprehended.
A security source, who confirmed the arrest to TheCable,
said the suspect was trying to gain entry into the park
when the explosives on him were spotted by metal detectors
mounted at the entrance.
“The man came very early in the morning, around 6am, and
was trying to enter. But he was unable to achieve his
aim”, the source said.
“Security at the gate detected the bomb, and they caught
him. Most of the parks now have metal detectors since
Boko Haram has been targeting crowds of people that can
usually be found at parks”, the source added.
Described as a “grown man”, the suspect has since been
handed over to the police.
