At least 29 people have been killed in Nigeria as two bombs ripped through two bus stations in the city of Gombe, according to reports.

According to BBC, at least 49 people were killed last week at a market.

Boko Haram has stepped up attacks in northern Nigeria after President Muhammudu Buhari took office in May.

No group has claimed responsibility for the attack as yet, although Boko Haram has targeted bus stations in the city before.
