Bomb Blast in Nyanya-Abuja Motor Park Kills Over 50








A bomb explosion occurred this morning under Nyanya bridge bus stop in Abuja and over 50 people have been confirmed dead! (Over 200 are actually feared dead because as the causality figure is still rising)
 
Yours truly who reside within the axis heard the explosion at about 6:45am at Nyanya Elrufai Park, the only major park where commuters residing along mararaba, nyanya, karu, jikwoyi and its environs come to take the popular el-rufai buses coming into the city center of Abuje. The source of the explosion was a car bomb. It is suspected that a Toyota Seina bus which was parked overnight was laden with the bomb that went off this morning, knowing fully well that there would be so much more people at the bus stop this morning. Sound of the explosion at Nyanya (Under Bridge) was heard from far away Abacha Road in Mararaba.
Majority of the people killed in the Nyanya bus stop explosion were actually coming to the city centre to tend to their various jobs. NEMA ambulances were seen carrying corpses.
