Initial visuals from the explosion site showed several schoolchildren being moved away from the scene. One of them was injured. This led to speculation that the explosion occurred in a school.

But the Kano State Government has said that was not the case.

An investigation has commenced to determine the cause, impact, and measures to be taken, according to Garba.
