safety tips to be followed when such explosions occur. At the Jos University Teaching Hospital, JUTH, Mr. Bardeh, while addressing journalists, called for the enforcement of the ban on street trading in the state to avoid high casualties when such incidents occur.

Mr. Bardeh, an Air Chief Marshall, advised that people should stay calm whenever a bomb explodes and desist from rushing to scene of blast.
“Whenever there is a bomb explosion, people should stay away,” he said. “For those who are on the scene, they should lay low on the ground, because bombs have shrapnel nails in them, and they fly upward.”He added that “when you lay down on the floor for at least 30 minutes, it’s enough sacrifice for you to stay alive.”
