UPDATE

At least eight persons have been confirmed dead and others injured following a chemical explosion at the Plateau Water Board treatment plant around the British America junction in Jos the Plateau State capital.

Daily Trust gathered that the explosion occurred around 3:45am on Sunday [Saturday] raising alarm that it may have been another bomb explosion. A staff of Plateau Water Board Saturday confirmed the incident to our correspondent saying a chlorine pipe had bursted and the impact had raised down some buildings around the area. The source who did not want to be quoted said 15 persons had been affected among which eight persons died in the hospital while seven where receiving treatment. He said "when the pipe bursted, it released chlorine and you know it is like gas so it raised down some buildings."

However, Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Emmanuel Abu on Sunday [Saturday] morning discarded insinuations that the loud sound from the explosion was as a result of a bomb explosion. Abu said the treatment plant had been cordoned off by the police and management of the plant have been advised to take necessary precautionary steps not to allow anyone into the plant.

He said a number of persons had been injured in the explosion and were presently receiving treatment at the Plateau Specialist Hospital. "Our antibomb squad took control of the area and they evacuated the affected persons to the hospital. Sadly, five persons died in the hospital while others are receiving treatment," said the Police spokesperson.
