A SUICIDE blast that rocked the UN building in the Nigerian capital
Abuja today has killed at least 18 people and wounded eight others, a
police commissioner said as rescue operations continued.

"So far, we have 18 dead and eight injured," local police commissioner
Mike Zuokumor told journalists.

"It was a Honda Accord car. The suicide bomber died immediately as the
bomb cut him into three. I cannot say how many people are still in the
building. The rescue operation is still on."
