The
responsibility for a June 25 bombing in
Wuse II, Abuja, and an explosion same
day at a fuel depot in Apapa, Lagos
State, has been claimed by Boko Haram
The sect’s leader, Abubakar Shekau, in a
new video seen by AFP Sunday, claimed
responsibility for the attacks.
While the Abuja attack, a suicide
bombing at Emab Plaza, left no fewer
than 20 persons dead, the explosion in
Lagos, which authorities said was an
“industrial accident”, did not claim any
life.
However, AFP investigations claimed the
Lagos attack was a deliberate explosion.
Speaking about the Lagos incident,
Shekau said in the video: “I ordered
(the bomber) who went and detonated
it”, while claiming responsibility for the
“bomb in filthy Abuja”.
