A twin bomb blast has hit a market in Jos Plateau State, reports say.
According to SaharaReporters, the bombing took place at a Mr. Biggs roundabout on Ahmadu Bello Way.
It is the same area a bomb went off in May, killing up to 118 people.
A source was quoted as saying: "One would have said the causalities would be low, but since the ban on street hawking in Jos, [the area] gets crowded at night for late buying and selling,"
An AFP report said officials have confirmed the attack but there is no word on the casualties.
