Children escape death at Dunamis Church in Abuja, as bomb blast is foiled

A number of children would have been dead at Dunamis Church in Nigeria if not for the vigilance of the church members who quickly raised alarm after they suspected that an explosive was tucked under a seat in the children’s session of the church during a midweek service. The church members who quickly ran for dear lives contacted the FCT Anti-bomb squad who responded almost immediately and got the bomb detonated.

The explosive was hidden in an Aluminum container and kept under a seat at the Dunamis Church in Nyanya at about 9pm on Wednesday.

Dailypost reliably gathered that the church member who fled from the church for fear of the explosive spread the news like wild fire until it got to the FCT Police bomb squad who arrived at the venue few minutes later.

The Head of the Technical unit of the Church, Mr Godstime Asuquo confirmed the incident, stating that it was God who gave them the wisdom to discover that the enemies had planted a bomb in the church.

“As we are preparing for another prayer meeting this evening, the church is planning to recruit more security personnel to ensure the safety of lives in the church, this incident cannot send our members away, all hands are on deck to curb the situation “he said.
