Bomb blast: Anxiety in police hqtrs over internal probe 

Fears have gripped policemen and officers at the Force Headquarters in Abuja as some of them have been directed to write statements on the security breach that led to the bomb that exploded at the car park of the expansive building on Thursday.

A top police source, who made this known to one of our correspondents on Sunday, said the affected policemen and officers were worried because the incident might cost them their jobs.

About eight people were killed, scores injured and 77 vehicles destroyed in the bombing that an Islamic fundamentalist group, Boko Haram, claimed responsibility.
