According to reports in the news especially on CNN, it is said that the death toll has risen to over 70 and many others are injured and receiving treatment.It is not yet clear who is behind this latest attack but sources say it is mostly linked to Boko haram, a terrorist group that has constantly made attacks in populated places and especially during Christian feast like Easter and Christmas.The bomb blast occurred at a park mostly filled with travelers and with some buses already loaded.An eye witness claimed that the bomb came from a parked car within the park and this happened early in the morning, around 6.45 a.m just as early morning passengers were hoping to go on their trip.President Jonathan has been reported to have visited the site to study the situation. It is a very sad day in Abuja and this is happening just a week before Easter.
