It was gathered that the forensic investigators are from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
When journalists visited the scene, more than 100 heavily armed security agents were seen condoning off the area. The joint team of security agents included the Department of State Service (DSS), the police, army, civil defence and Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC).
An unnamed army officer who confided in journalist said the forensic investigators arrived Abuja yesterday morning and were immediately conveyed to the scene of the carnage.
Few investigators from the United States arrived Abuja yesterday morning to join us in Nigeria to carry out a forensic investigation on what happened. Many of them are black, so you might not recognise them. It is a joint operation. That means all the security agencies are involved,” the army officer said.
The forensic investigators were seen picking up samples and other vital tools at the scene of the blast.
Just over the bridge, more than 500 onlookers who abandoned their work stormed the area to catch a glimpse of what the security agents were doing.
