A bomb concealed in a black plastic bag killed several people at a cash point in north Nigeria's Bauchi state on Friday near the scene of a recent bus station attack blamed on Boko Haram, witnesses said.
  
Multiple residents of the targeted town of Azare told AFP that the bomber approached people who had queued up outside a First Bank branch at roughly 10:30 am (0930 GMT). "A man came on foot to this ATM where a large crowd was taking turns to withdraw money," said Lamara Ibrahim, who was at the scene.
  
The man tried to leave a black plastic bag on a parked motorcycle nearby but was stopped before he could leave by locals who said leaving parcels unaccompanied was prohibited following recent unrest in the area. "It was while they were talking to him that the bomb exploded. I saw at least 10 people that looked dead," said Ibrahim, noting that he was  not in a position to authoritatively confirm a death toll.
  
Musa Usman, who was also nearby, gave an identical account of the attack and estimated that several people were killed. A bomb blast at a bus station in Azare killed at least five people on October 23, with many in the city pointing the finger at Boko Haram, which is waging a five-year uprising against the Nigerian state.
