                    [Summary] => DAVAO CITY - "Mama, mama, taxi! Ngitngit kaayo (It is so dark!)."


Those were the last words of Filomena Espera Songaling’s only child, Bonnel, 14, when a bomb ripped through a row of foodstalls at the gate of the passenger terminal of the Sasa Wharf here on Wednesday night.

At least 16 people died and 57 others were wounded in the bomb blast, the second in Davao city in less than a month.

Filomena, 40, said the blast was so loud, the deafening thud seemed to black out everything momentarily.
