Suicide Bomber Kills 17 in Potiskum!

No fewer than 17 people are believed to have died following a blast that ripped through a bus in Potiskum, Yobe state, on Tuesday. The blast happened at the Tashar Dan-Borno motor park. 
A driver at the park revealed that the bus had just loaded with passengers and its destination was Kano. 
Witnesses said they saw up to 12 bodies being brought out of the burnt bus while 17 others had been rushed to the hospital with varying degrees of injuries.

The official and another driver both said the blast happened after a man put a bag in the boot of the bus and then tried to board the vehicle before he could go through a security check.
The latest explosion took place three days after a young girl with explosives blew up in a crowded market, killing herself and six others.
The Boko Haram terrorist group is believed to be behind the bombing.
