Fresh Bomb blast in Nyanya, Abuja

News reaching our desk not quite a long time now unfold a Bomb Blast within Jikwoyi Road (region around same bus station hit twice last year) at Nyanya, Abuja.

Nigeria’s National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) warned of casualties from the simultaneous explosions in Kuje and Nyanya and likened the explosives used to those in areas worst-hit by the six-year insurgency.

“It was not an accidental explosion ... definitely it was a bomb,” Nema spokesman Manzo Ezekiel said. “At this time we can only confirm the explosions. Our officers are on the ground. There are a number of dead but we can’t say anything about numbers now.”

The attacks came a day after at least 10 people were killed when four suicide bombers blew themselves up in the Borno State Capital, Maiduguri and 11 villagers died in neighbouring Adamawa State.
