An abandoned golf car loaded with gas cylinders and Jery cans caused a scare around the vicinity of the Kubwa central mosque in phase 2 site 2 area of the satellite town, Daily Trust reports.
According to witnesses, many residents and passersby started running thinking that the vehicle is a car bomb.
The area was eventually cordoned by the police anti bomb squad who were called in by the Imam of the mosques to investigate the mysterious vehicle.
