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.
