Barely 48 hours after the school explosion in Potiskum, Yobe State, that claimed several lives, another suicide bomber has struck at the College of Education, Kontagora, Niger State.

Reports reaching us indicate that a lone female suicide bomber died on Wednesday at about 12 noon alongside another student of the College of Education when the bomb went off.

The suicide bomber was said to have been on her way to the school’s library before the explosive went off killing the other student who just happened to have been walking at close proximity.

This is the first bombing incident in that part of the state since the beginning of the five year old insurgency by the Boko Haram sect.

The college's provost Dr. Nathaniel Odediran said the bomber only succeeded in blowing herself up while a student sustained injury.

The state police spokesperson DSP Ibrahim Gambari confirmed the incident but did not give detail.
