A major calamity was averted at Dunamis Church in the Federal Capital Territory when an explosive suspected to be bomb tucked under a seat in the children’s session of the church was discovered and was quickly detonated.

The explosive was concealed in an Aluminum container during the mid-week service of the Church in the Nyanya area of Abuja on Wednesday.

The church service was still in progress when the explosive was uncovered. News Nigeria gathered that worshippers and members of the church at the mid week service ran for cover when the news of the bomb spread like wild fire round the church.
