No one claimed responsibility for the blast but Islamist
militant group Boko Haram has been blamed for a series of similar attacks in
the region in recent weeks.
Speaking to our correspondent on the telephone, the head of
Damaturu Response Office of the National Emergency Management Agency, Bashir
Idris Garga, said two bomb incidents happened at the Central Motor park in the
centre of the town and at the Pompomari area.
According to him, the bomb incident at the motor park occurred
at about 7.30am and was caused by a teenage girl that had an improvised
explosive device (IED) strapped on her.
