Kano explosion victims yet to get compensation

The families of the March 18 terror attack on the New Road Luxury Park, Kano, are still awaiting compensation from the federal government, 82-days after.
The attack left 39 passengers, passers-by and traders in the area dead and 79 injured, according to official figures.
The management of the park, yesterday decried what it called the nonchalant attitude of the federal authorities to the sufferings of the bereaved families.
The secretary of the Association of Luxury Bus Owners of Nigeria, Kano branch, Mr. Godson Nwokoma, said at a memorial service for the victims in Kano that while the state government intervened to foot the bills of the injured, no form of succor has come in from the federal government.
