Nigerian city of Jos hit by blast

Written By blogger on Saturday, May 24, 2014 | 2:54 PM

An explosion has shaken Jos in central Nigeria, days after a twin car bomb attack killed 118 people in the city.

Police said the blast happened near an open-air TV viewing centre where people were watching the Champions League footbal final.

It is not clear if there are casualties. Unconfirmed reports said a suicide bomber had died in an apparently botched attack.

Tuesday's bomb attack was blamed on Boko Haram Islamist militants.

A spokesman for Plateau state governor Jonah Jang said the blast happened on Bauchi Road at about 21:30 local time (20:30 GMT).
