10 Feared Dead At Arepo Pipeline Explosion In Ogun State by Nobody: 11:32pm On Jan 12, 2013
Atleast 10 suspected
vandals were, Saturday,
feared dead in an
explosion that rocked
the Nigerian National
Petroleum Corporation,NNPC,
pipeline at Arepo village,
Owode, Ogun State. Vanguard gathered that
the explosion came
following a fire which
was sparked off by
some vandals who
stormed the creeks by boat to siphon fuel
from the NNPC pipeline. Arepo was the scene of
the killing of three NNPC
officials by vandals last
year. One of the
survivors of Saturday’s
incident was said to have participated in the
officials murder. File photo: Pipeline fire File photo: Pipeline fire There were fears, that
damage to the pipeline
could worsen petrol
scarcity as it supplies the
product from Atlas Cove
Jetty in Lagos to other South-West states. Eyewitness account
stated that the
explosion came after an
argument erupted
between two of the
vandals who were struggling to siphon fuel
from the pipeline and it
resulted into a heated
argument that made one
of them who was
armed with a rifle to shoot indiscriminately
into the air.Vanguard
learnt that bullets from
the rifle hit the
ruptured pipeline and
led to an explosion.www.vanguardngr.com/2013/01/10-feared-dead-at-arepo-pipeline-explosion/
