There was a bomb scare at the Nigeria Permanent Mission House in New York on Thursday.
Panic engulfed the atmosphere at the house located on Second Avenue, 44th Street when the bomb alarm was raised by security agencies.
People scamper for safety as the American Police cordoned-off the place to conduct a search which lasted for about 30 minutes.
A source said the alarm came after the police discovered a bag carelessly dropped close to the Kudirat Abiola corner of the house. The strange bag was suspected to be containing an explosive.
Although the content of the bag was not disclosed, normalcy, however, returned after the environs were cleared and the security agencies asked people to resume their daily business.
