Musa who confirmed that he was with the victims said they died from an explosion.
“I nearly got affected, but as God would have it, I escaped unhurt.”
However, another source, who pleaded for anonymity, said the deceased were hit by stray bullets.
“I was opposite the filling station when the incident happened, there was nothing like blast, we just heard sporadic gunshots and the boys were down. Four of them died instantly,” he said. (Daily Trust)
