Fresh multiple explosions have rocked Ajilari Railway cross of Gomari Airport ward of Maiduguri leaving 51 people dead and several others critically injured.

He also revealed that another bomb exploded at a mini business district where people were shopping for dinner.

The third site where the explosion occurred was a game centre in the area where young people pay to play computer games and get their mobile phones charged.
