Powerful multiple explosions rocked Maiduguri on Tuesday night barely 24 hours after suicide attacks in the city killed 12 persons, including the bombers.
Reports suggest that at least six explosions occurred between 10:45 pm and 11:00 pm on Tuesday.
About four heavy sounds were heard simultaneously while two other powerful explosions that shook the roofs were recorded some 15 minutes later.
Unlike the previous explosions, the current blasts had a deafening sound, across the metropolis.
Details of the explosions are still hazy as at the time of this report.
The exact location of the blasts is still unknown because efforts to get the details were not successful as none of the official security spokespersons were available for comments.
However, a security source told our source that soldiers had fired an artillery at a convoy of suspected Boko Haram insurgents who were trying to attack the city.
The artillery shots may have caused the explosions.
Series of blasts have hit the metropolis of recent with the latest on Monday where 12 persons were confirmed dead, including the suicide bombers.
