No fewer than three persons have been confirmed killed following a bomb explosion that rocked a drinking t at a cattle market in Iware Community, a suburb of Ardo-Kola Local Government Area of Taraba State.

At least 19 other persons have also been confirmed injured and receiving treatment at various health centres within the community and beyond.

The Police Public Relations Officer Abdullahi Usman confirmed this to Channels Television via a telephone interview.

He noted that this is the second time such explosion is taking place with the first at a catholic school in Mutum Biyu, the headquarters of Gassol Local Government Area, 30 kilometres away from each other a month ago.

Usman added that security operatives have been drafted to the scene to commence investigation as well as douse the tension already created.

Iware Community is known for its cattle market and attracts buyers from all over Nigeria and neigbouring Cameroon who storm the market every Tuesday to make purchases at affordable prices.

An eye witness Sunday Pantuvo, who narrowly escaped with injuries said the alleged bomber came to the drinking t with a friend as customers, ordered for a drink and left in separate ways.

The alleged bomber later returned, paid for the drink and dropped a polythene bag which is said to contain the explosive and stepped aside.

Few minutes later, he said he was going in search of his friend and seconds after the bomb exploded.

Pantuvo said one of the suspected bombers was later caught and killed by the angry residents who cut his body into parts in anger.

Nigeria under buhari has become something else, a retired army general who doesn't know anything concerning security of lives and property.

This is as a result of havin a muslim/almajiri as president.Imagine having a muslim as a president, a jihadist for that matter.SMH! Muslims are the most incompetent group of useless things you could ever imagine.No to islam! No to women! A word is enough for the wise.

Not good.

May God heal them

Rip to the dead.

Meanwhile I think with blocking of sim cards..... there will be no insurgent in Nigeria again.

Rubbish!!!

You can imagine how these bandits are making use of bomb.

Balkanization of the country has started,....but it can and should be bloodless.

Every morning we move out to our various places of work, just to earn money to take care of our families, may we never be victims of the unfortunate occurance and insecurities of this country.

Another unfortunate incident everyday bad news even though no good news inside Aso rock..

Politicians

Some years back, it was a news; a shocking one for that matter.

Going forward, it became a pity and a painful news, with heavy heart and great sympathy; some even shared tears for the dead and devasted.

These days, I barely give a fÛck and pity.

Nigeria has made me cold without a war in my vicinity, which is even more of a shocking news to me than the daily killings in the north.

This is graphic na. Why una no put warning

Chai!
Nigeria

Taraba drinking t?

No day ends in Nigeria without news of people getting killed

Buhari

They want to turn this country to Yemen, but God them.

All because of state pardon ?
Politicians are wicked.

Unfortunately our military men are not close by, they are in Orlu killing innocent civilians.

May thunder scatter Buhari and those his soldiers he sent to Imo.

What a country?

I will never understand.

Will Nigeria ever recover from all these?

Them don resume!!!!!!
