             Nigeria Uncovers Plot to Bomb Abuja Transport Network

   by Reuters

   Nigerian police have uncovered a plot to bomb the Abuja transport
   network, they said on Saturday, using suicide bombers and devices
   concealed in luggage at major bus stations.

   Abuja has increasingly been targeted by Islamist group Boko Haram, with
   three deadly bombings since April, including one in a bus park on its
   outskirts that killed at least 75 people.

   "Credible intelligence ... indicates that terrorists have perfected a
   plot to carry out attacks on the Abuja transport sector ... intended to
   cause panic amongst Abuja residents and visitors,'' police spokesman
   Frank Mba said in a statement.
