Nigeria’s President Jonathan was moments ago at the scene of the Nyanya, Abuja bomb blasts. Speaking through his spokesman, Dr. Reuben Abati, the president said he was “saddened by loss of lives in Nyanya bombing.” Dr. Abati communicating via Twitter also tweeted that, “President Jonathan has ordered heightened security in Abuja following Nyanya bombing. President Jonathan extends his heartfelt condolences to bereaved families. President Jonathan directs the medical services to do their very best to save the lives of those injured in Nyanya bombing.” The president was scheduled to be in Ibadan today for the centenary celebrations of the Olubadan of Ibadan. He has since visited Asokoro Hospital where some of the injured victims of the attack are currently undergoing treatment. There is a reported shortage of blood as blood donors are needed.
