According to this Report, the bomb went off under Nyanya bridge where Abuja Urban Mass Transport Company garage is located. The location is a few kilometres to Abacha Barracks in the Federal Capital Territory.
According to reports, a car laced with bombs exploded under the bridge and the effect was heard at adjourning areas of AY, Asokoro, Nyanya, and Karu.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility but suspicion is likely to fall on armed group Boko Haram. The group has been involved in increasing levels of violence in the northeast.
