An explosion has rocked several buildings across from the offices of
the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC building in Abuja just
minutes ago.
The cause of the explosion is yet to be ascertained.
Sources say the explosion came from the Conoil filling station
opposite the NNPC towers. The loud blast which shook the area, raising
fears it was a bomb blast was said to be as a result of an underground
tank exploding.
Security operatives were said to have arrived the site of the
explosion promptly to ensure things don’t get out of hand. Fire fighters
were however late to the explosion site as sources said they got there
about 30 minutes after the fire started.
