Survivors of the unintentional bombing by the Nigerian army in Kaduna State on Sunday night expressed their shock yesterday.
Some lost their spouses, children and relatives.
A resident, Umar Yunusa, said his wife and two children died in the accident. He is now left to cater to his last daughter alone, The Nation reports.
“We thought it was the sound of a loudspeaker when the first bomb dropped.
“Everywhere we turned, the ground was littered with bodies and flesh.
“I no longer have a wife and I lost two children. I also lost three of my siblings.
“There is no family that has not lost someone. We also lost visitors,” he told The Nation.
Bara’atu Abdullahi came to visit her mother and decided to join the occasion.
She sustained injuries, but others around her were not so fortunate.
“Some were dismembered; hands and legs were cut off; some had burst stomachs,” she said.
