There was pandemonium in the early hours of today over bomb scare in Wuse area of Abuja, Nigeria’s capital. Residents woke up to see that all the roads that lead to popular Wuse market were barricaded by the police.
A policeman who spoke anonymously to news men said that “Boko Haram planned to bomb the market today, that is why this market will remain closed until we are told to leave. “
Economic activities in the market have declined since the Boko Haram insurgents bombed Nyanya bus terminus in Abuja.
Today shop owners were denied access to the market. One of the shop owners who also spoke to news men, said that there have been several bomb threats before today. “It is just by the grace of God that we are here everyday,” the shop owner said.
