Gov. Rabi’u Kwankwaso of Kano State on Monday condemned Sunday night’s bomb attack on Gold Coast Road, Sabon Gari, Kano.
Four persons were confirmed killed in the attack, including the suicide-bomber.
“Attack on Sabon Gari is an attack on Nigeria. Sabon Gari accommodates different ethnic groups from many parts of the country,” he said on a sympathy visit to the people of the area.
Kwankwaso described the incident as an act of criminality meant to kill innocent people without a just course.
