The National Hospital, Abuja, is overwhelmed with the number of blast victims it has had to deal with in recent times.
Thursday night’s blast at Nyanya, near Abuja, has compounded the problem, according to the hospital’s spokesman, Dr Tayo Haastrup, who said nine persons were receiving treatment.
He said medical personnel have been mobilised to attend to the injured and many of them have been stabilised.
He, however, said the hospital was finding it difficult to cope with the number since it has still some victims of the last explosion on admission.

our Good Lord, Pls expose these guyz in no good time
Its sad the turn of events in the country. Anybody behind this evil will be visited by same evil. The president will go after completing his mandate but the incalculabe damage to lives and property will remain particularly the economy of the north. Lets give peace a chance. God bless Nigeria.
