just finished observing the Maghrib prayer when we heard a loud blast
in the direction of the market… You know many traders also come out of
the market and display their wares outside the main market to also
observe the night market…there was even traffic gridlock in the area
with many Keke Napep operators jostling for passengers when the bomb
exploded.”
