Pupils and staff of Amaizu/ Amangballa Primary School in Afikpo local government area of Ebonyi state escaped death after a suicide bomber who made his way into the school blew himself into pieces.
The bomber was wearing a bomb strapped vest which exploded and ripped the upper part of his body into pieces.
A source in the area said the incident happened around 12noon.
“He made an attempt at entering Amaizu/ Amangballa Primary School but was turned back by the school security since he couldn’t justify his reason for visiting. He immediately started running inside a nearby bush before a big bang was heard,” the source said.
An eyewitness also shared a video from the scene. Watch below.
