Police discover 100 strands of dynamite in Kaduna

The police in Kaduna yesterday uncovered plans to cause massive bombing of part of Kaduna with the discovery of over 100 strands of dynamites loaded in three sacks after one other sack exploded, killing one person, while the other is currently in hospital.

The state Police Commissioner, Haruna John, told newsmen at the St Gerard Catholic Hospital, Kaduna where one of the suspected bombers was admitted for treatment that the bombs were capable of bringing down any building in the state.

The police boss had on Thursday afternoon alerted of plots to cause violence during the National Assembly election by unknown people, saying that security agents would not tolerate any act of violence throughout the election.

However, a few hours after the police warning, a bomb was said to have exploded at Mahuta village on the outskirts of Kaduna metropolis, killing one of those carrying it, while the other was seriously injured.
