A car bomb attack has killed at least 19 people and injured 60 more in the Nigerian capital Abuja, officials say.
The explosion happened in the suburb of Nyanya, close to a bus station where at least 70 people died in a bomb blast on 14 April.
Witnesses said the explosion targeted a police checkpoint near a bus station.
No group has said it carried out Thursday’s attack. The Islamist militant group Boko Haram said it was behind the fatal explosion last month.
Around Abuja there are mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers and friends searching for missing loved ones.
With this, the second attack in less than three weeks, there are mounting worries over the nation’s insecurity. It is not clear why the suburb of Nyanya was targeted once more. If it was Boko Haram again, it could be the Islamist insurgents’ way of saying: “You cannot stop us even where you put your checkpoints.”
