A car bombing at a bus station on the outskirts of Nigeria's capital killed at least 20 people, and injured 85, just weeks after a deadly attack hit the same spot. No group has claimed responsibility for the latest attack, but suspicion immediately fell on Boko Haram, the extremist Islamist group which has killed thousands in a five-year insurgency. Other reports claim varying numbers. The original causality figures were lower, but gained in number as time passed and authorities could administer a reliable count. |
