There was pandemonium at Galadimawa town of Fatika District in Giwa Local Government Area of Kaduna State after a device suspected to be explosives went off on Friday evening, killing one person and injuring 11.

An eyewitness, who narrowly escaped the explosion, told our correspondent that the device went off a few meters from a police outpost in the community.

He described himself as lucky, saying he would have died or found himself critically injured in the blast.
