Police officials have apprehended a man who purportedly detonated a bomb that slayed a worshipper and injured 24 others in a mosque in Gezawa Local Government Area of Kano State.

The incident had taken place early Wednesday morning when the worshippers were observing the ‘Subh’ prayer in Gadan community in the LGA.

The state commissioner of police, Usaini Gumel, told reporters that Shafi’u Abubakar, 38, later told investigators that he had targeted the worshippers over a family dispute on inheritance.

The police chief had also said that preliminary forensic analysis had shown that the explosion was caused by a petrol bomb and revealed that a detailed investigation was ongoing.

Meanwhile, one of the victims had succumbed to their injuries while receiving treatment at the Murtala Muhammad Specialist Hospital.

What They’re Saying

SCP Usaini Gumel had released a statement that partly read:

“On May 15, 2024, at about 5:20 a.m. the police received a report of an explosion at a mosque in Gadan Village during the dawn prayer, leaving several people injured.

“Promptly, a team of security personnel, including experts in Explosive Ordance Disposal Chemical Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (EOD-CBRN)were deployed to the scene.

“Twenty-four victims, including 20 males and four children, who sustained various degrees of injuries, were rushed to Murtala Mohammed Specialist Hospital Kano for treatment,” the police commissioner said.
