The bomb is said to have exploded at 1pm when most of the traders were gearing up for the day's business. The bomb according to an eyewitness is suspected to have been planted the previous day.
"It was suspected to have been buried near the spot where charcoal traders use to sell coals. But we are believing that they buried the explosives may be yesterday. Four persons sustained injury, but one has more serious injury because one of his arm was cut off by the bomb" according to the eyewitness, Hasimu Bello.
This explosion came barely 24 hours after a suicide bomber killed 26 people in a mosque near Maiduguri's main market.
Both explosions are suspected to have been carried out by Boko Haram militants.
