The
Nigeria Police says President Jonathan was not the target of the bomb
blast that happened outside the Pantami stadium, venue of the PDP
Presidential rally in Gombe state earlier today. In an interview with
Premium Times, the Gombe state Police command spokesperson, Fwaje
Atajiri, said GEJ had long gone when the female suicide bomber stormed
the road close to the venue of the rally.
"The
president was long gone before the blast and if not for media, he would
not (have known of the blast) so he could not have been the target. The
suicide bomber was heading to her target when the bomb she was carrying
went off in an empty place prematurely because of the high level of
security put in place. The suicide bomber and a passerby were the ?only
casualties, while six persons were injured but not fatally.
