The Lagos State Police command has refuted claims that the
explosion that happened last night at Creek road in Apapa
Lagos was caused by a bomb saying it was caused by a tanker
carrying petrol
Force Public Relations officer, Ngozi Braide explains
“There is nothing whatsoever suggesting that it was a bomb
explosion. It was a tanker loaded with fuel that burst into
flames. Policemen are on ground there now and we cannot
yet ascertain the casualty figures. But everything is under
control,” she said.
In a contradictory statement, Ibrahim Farinloye, the
Spokesperson for the National Emergency Management
Agency, NEMA South-West said the cause of the fire was as
a result of a gas cylinder explosion. See more photos from the
incident after the cut...
"People were reported to be filling gas into the cylinder
before it exploded. The incident happened within Folawiyo
Energy Premises but they did not allow fire men into their
premises at all” Mr. Farinloye said in a text message to
Premiumtimes.
