"The Islamic Republic of Iran condemns such extremist and terrorist acts, specially the recent terrorist and inhumane act in Abuja and it wants restoration of peace, tranquility and security for the Nigerian nation," Afkham told reporters on Tuesday.

On Monday, a loud blast rocked a bus station packed with commuters heading to Abuja, with many people feared injured, the rescue agency spokesman said.

"This morning there was an explosion at the Nyanya Motor Park," Manzo Ezekiel of the National Emergency Management Agency said.

"Rescue teams are already on ground. There were so many people there at that time, so we think there must have been some injuries," he added. The cause of the blast was not yet known.
