Director-General of the National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA, Sanni Sidi disclosed that yesterday’s bomb blast happened when a parked car with explosives exploded.
Sidi, who spoke to journalists at the Asokoro General Hospital, Abuja, noted that the blast was not as intense as the previous one, stressing that yesterday’s blast happened fifty metres away from the last one, but the same Nyanya, outskirts of Abuja.
Also speaking with Journalists at hospital, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory Senator Bala Mohammed described the incident as unfortunate especially coming barely some weeks after the last one. He however assured residents of the territory of government’s readiness to provide security as well as protect lives and property, adding that it was early to give numbers of casualties as he was at the hospital to assess the level of services being rendered by his staff.
Giving the number of injured persons at the various hospitals, Secretary, Health and Human Services, Ademola Onakomaiya disclosed that the total number of those who sustained injuries at Asokoro, Maitama General Hospitals and National Hospital were 41 with 30 at Asokoro, 2 in Maitama and 9 at National Hospital, adding that arrangements have been put in place as 20 bed spaces have been created in three hospitals where those at Asokoro would be taken to.

What in the world is wrong with the Naija Government. How can they be so insensitive to the plight of the people.
Nigerians are tire of the “empty promises” by these politicians to cub insecurity. Terrorism in now no news in Nigeria. WHAT A SHAMELESS NATION WITH SHAMELESS LEADERS. Any day a relation to a minister dies through bomb blast, government will rise to the challenge.
Medicine after death is Nigerian govt method.they wait for smtin to happen then they provide medical support for d victims.y nt prevent?nigerians,these old men u call ur leaders hav notin to offer to u.
Where are the U.N.O and AU,why are they not helping the people of Nigeria against the so called ignorants bokoharm,we do help other nations of the world in fighting and peace-keeping.Why is our own case different?
