“I Saw Many People In The Bus Dead”, Says Abuja Bomb Blast Witness
Category: Terrorism News
A witness to the early morning explosion that occurred at a
crowded bus station on the outskirts of Abuja today has given a jaw
dropping account of what he saw.
“I saw many people in the bus dead, and many were injured.”
No fewer than 35 people were said to have died while scores were
reported injured in the blast at Nyanya major bus park, the first such
attack near the Nigerian capital for two years.
Body parts and blood were strewn across the station and an unruly
crowd of several hundred onlookers were roaming around with security
forces unable to keep them away.
“I was waiting to get on a bus when I heard a deafening explosion
then saw smoke. People were running around in panic,” said Mimi Daniels,
who works in Abuja.
Also, a foreign media house cameraman said he saw 20 bodies at the station near Nyanyan bridge, south of Abuja.
Another news reporter was also quoted saying that he saw at least 15 bodies separately loaded into waiting ambulances.
Police and the military did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
