The Police Commissioner, Aderenle Shinaba, confirmed this while briefing newsmen in Kano.
Shinaba said the explosive was concealed in a bag in the market and that the personnel of the Anti-bomb Squad of the command had successfully diffused it.
The commissioner, however, denied rumours that a female suicide bomber who went to a clinic for treatment was arrested.
He called on the people of the state to continue to cooperate with security agencies to enable them discharge their duties effectively.
NAN reports that two female suicide bombers had on Wednesday detonated an explosive near the Kantin Kwari International Textiles market in the city, killing themselves and four others.
