Explosion reported at popular Emab Plaza in Abuja, at least 6 killed

And now they've started bombing shopping malls? Dear Lord, help us! People who live in the area have reported an explosion at popular Emab Plaza on Aminu Kano Crescent in Wuse 2, Abuja, which happened just a few minutes ago around 4pm. Someone tweeted this pic above supposedly from the explosion. The explosion is said to have occurred at the gate of the very busy plaza and six people have been confirmed dead with at least 15 people injured...

Will bring update as I get it...see more photos after the cut...

      And everyone knows Nigerians will do NOTHING besides call God, God, and more God.
      Nigerians, prepare, because I give it no more than 6 months and America is gonna invade and take over since Nigeria is "ungovernable." Just watch and see, cause that's how it usually happens.

  25. This is NOT a war against Religion or Education. It is a war against the peace loving people of Nigeria, and we MUST all rise and confront this evil menace. About time we stopped calling on God to come down, we need to take our destiny into our own hands..Enough of this Evil. God bless Nigeria.

  30. That place looked like a prime target for any bomber, a business hub, packed full with Easterners and Westerners and always crowded. I can't believe I was discussing the fact that something like this might happen at a place like that and the security at Banex had being beefed up after the nyanya bomb blast! So sad! Any lives lost?

  31. Handwork of those Northern Islamic Blood Thirsty politicians who promised to make President Jonathan's administration ungovernable.

    Nigeria was never one and Nigeria will never be one!, the North believe they are "Born to Rule", Just Imagine! President Jonathan just have to accept that we are not one and add the word "Sovereign" to the ongoing National conference since he is so scared and can't Prosecute those sponsoring Boko-Haram. Quite a Pity!

      I shake my head for you. Thats exactly the plan if you haven't noticed. All this international attention on Nigeria all of a sudden. You think this is a coincidence? Wake up dear, the western world has been planning the demise and complete take over of Nigeria for a long time now. And people think because Obama is black that he is for Africans. Obama serves elite WHITE American interest and nobody else.
