The Kaduna State government has imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew in the state following the reprisal attacks that trailed Sunday's explosions in Zaria and Kaduna metropolis.
Christian youths reportedly went on a rampage after the blasts which rocked three churches in the two cities.
Reports say the government's action was to contain the potentially explosive situation.
Hundreds of angry youths have started rioting in Gonin Gora near Kaduna-Abuja Express Way. 
The youths made burn fire in the Sabon Tasha, Television and other Christian dominated parts of the city. 

Road blocks and burn fire were also made along major roads in the metropolis as aggrieved youths chased Hausa traders around.
