Nigerian capital bombed again

Updated 01.05 GMT
A car bomb attack on Thursday evening has killed at least 12 people in the Nigerian capital Abuja, reports the BBC.

No organisation has claimed responsibility for the attacks  however, it is suspected that the militant group Boko Haram who are responsible for the bombings on 14 April are likely to be responsible for today’s attacks.

The terror in Nigeria comes as Abuja prepares to host the World Economic Forum on Africa next month.
