Breaking News: A bomb blast rocked Abuja, the capital of Nigeria, early this morning, leaving at least 26 people dead and several others injured.
According to security sources, the explosion was an apparent assassination attempt targeting Nigeriaโs Vice President, Kashim Shettima. However, the Vice President was not harmed, as the device detonated moments before his convoy was expected to pass through the area.
Preliminary investigations suggest a coordinated effort to eliminate Vice President Shettima by any means necessary. Authorities have cordoned off the scene, and an intensive investigation is currently underway.
