The blast at the Sani Uthman Islamiyya School, a three-classroom block, built for nomadic education in Kuchibuyi Village, Bwari area council had claimed two lives and injured two persons.
Findings revealed that the student who brought the explosive to school came in from Katsina State a day before the tragic incident.
The boy who was holding the explosive died instantly, while the second boy died later at the hospital.
The incident recorded two survivors- a little girl receiving treatment at the Kubwa General Hospital, and another boy who has been referred to the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital.
Gory photos of the incident emerged today, revealing the aftermath of the blast on the school.
The school premises have since been sealed by the FCT police.
Recall that Redio Afinju reported a Monday statement by the FCT Police Spokesperson, Josephine Adeh, saying the explosives were brought into the school premises by three men, contradicting eyewitness accounts.

The police spokesperson said the owner of the school has been taken into custody for questioning, and further findings would be communicated in due course.
The FCT Commissioner of Police Olatunji Disu urged members of the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity, behaviour, or items that may resemble improvised explosive devices to the police.
