A powerful explosion shook the area surrounding Mogadishu Cantonment, a key Nigerian Army facility in Abuja, earlier this evening. Exclusive footage obtained by IgbereTV captures plumes of smoke rising near the military zone.
While initial reports suggest the detonation occurred near a busy bus stop opposite the barracks, security sources quickly moved to reassure the public. The Nigerian Army’s official X account confirmed the incident within hours, stating: “Situation Under Control” without disclosing further operational details.
The nature of the explosion remains unverified at press time, with no immediate claims of responsibility or confirmed casualty figures. Military spokespersons promised a comprehensive update as their investigation progresses.
Security has been tightened around the cantonment as emergency responders remain on high alert.
