Gunmen storm Abuja legislative quarters; 4 dead, 6 injured



Gunmen dressed in Nigerian Army uniforms
have struck at the Abuja Legislative Quarters in
the Nigerian capital, leaving at least four
persons dead and six injured. The attack happened at about 2:30 a.m. today,
according to the Abuja-based Daily Trust, which
reports witnesses as saying that the gunmen
started shooting sporadically upon storming the
quarters. Witnesses also claimed that some identity cards
of the alleged “soldiers” (gunmen) were found
at the scene. The Nigerian Police is said to have just arrived at
the scene and evacuating people. The identity of the victims is yet to be
ascertained.
