Depending on the charge used and the rigger ,if it a nitroglycerin based bomb the rigger might right many charges together to go off as one huge charge blast but for C-composition RDX based charge like I suspect was used here because of the blast signature on single charge is usually deployed .

Eteka1:
You can't be serious. Are you seriously telling me that it's not dynamite sticks they use in blasting stones? I know that they used to mix things inside.

Let me tell you something. I am from Akamkpa LGA in Cross River State..(Netim to be precise) we are the headquarters of granite and limestone in this area. We have up to 30 quarries here producing chippings, we have UNICEM (now Lafarge) cement factory at Mfamosin. I cannot remember the year I first saw how they blast stone here.

I don't think you have ever entered where there is stone before yet you are arguing.

Eteka1:
The truck must have been blown to tiny pieces flung far away from the blast site.

Read a similar incident where a truck loaded with dynamites blew up leaving only a deep crater.

Honestly your explanation makes sense, but some things left me wondering, how come the various claims have not also claimed casualty(ies) of death or injuries, or are we saying that the occupants of the truck escaped unhurt? What about at least a single piece of metal indicating a truck wreckage?
That it occurred in the middle of the road is not an excuse as this solely depends on the intent of the perpetrator if claims turns out to be false.

Can someone take a look at the way the rooftops were impacted . . . like being acted on from above? Just my personal opinion.

Topsic70:

What's d app you used for this aerial viewing?

989900:


Of course shockwave, but I'm asking about angle of impact of the shockwave.

...and it is uniform in guage.

Whatever that track is has clue to something on that ground.

When you dig ground the loose dirt sinks back in and you have to scoop and throw it to surface to get depth into the ground. Similarly when the ground blows up loose dirt and sand fills back in as the side walls collapse. So the bottom we are looking at here is not the true bottom of the crater....we are looking at loose dirt that filled back in. Is something buried under that loose dirt that could serve as clue to piece together the puzzle?

Eteka1:
There were no casualties because the police EOD team escorting the shipment said that when they noticed smoke from the engine of the truck, they had to move it as far as possible from where there are houses before clearing by the road.

They then tried to stop the smoke but we're unsuccessful as a small fire started coming out of the engine.

At this point, the EOD police advised that they move very far away from the truck with the rest of the vehicles knowing fully well it would explode.

This account was given by the Ondo State Police Commissioner and it makes sense.

The fragments of the blown up truck must have landed miles away from the explosion site so you cannot find a wrecked lying there.

Eteka1:
All these analysis is meaningless. You are talking about high velocity/low velocity. What do you think dynamites meant for blasting hard rocks will do? these things aren't toys.
Dynamites are very high explosives that's why they are widely used in mining.

The explosion caused by one stick of dynamite is really massive. Imagine what happens when a truck loaded with hundreds of sticks catches fire.

iamphilips:

You guys should try to understand that if its actually dynamite, There is surpose to be multiple explosions.

Uploading HD detailed pictures from the Drone soon

If your brain is too low to comprehend that indepth analysis then stop typing rubbish here and keep licking your senile oga anus.

uunwanaobong3:
I am so disappointed by Nigerians, if u carry out a proper research or watch Discovery channel, u will know that the dept of the crater and the impact on the distance building can only be cause by one thing, A MINI ASTEROID!
The dept of that crater and the shock wave on the building roofs is the force generated by an asteroid..... It was the biggest asteroid that destroy dinasour worldwide.

A truck loaded with multiple explosive will create a multiple explosion and all the building will be destroyed completely. And the bomb cannot create such a crater, except some very very very powerful bomb which can only be handle USA or Russian army and it is rare to find

mank1234:
Asteroid exploded in atmosphere? Was it the city's missile defence system that detonated it?
Shed more light.

suzzyboss:
Ha Nigeria is getting more scary by the day... I think the government is trying to cover up something..

Sanchez01:

It has already been established that the truck was moving explosives to Delta State or something before the disaster. No need to cook up theories.

Isinweke:



Look the picture very well, it's very clear how the wave pushed the roofs

Adroit144:
the asteroid exploding in the atmosphere might explain why there is no debris of d asteroid on the impact site. But if the asteroid had exploded in the atmosphere I don't think it will create such a large crater.. just like the case of the one that happened in Siberia

Eteka1:
You can shove your coconut water filled head into your anus and go to hell.

Eteka1:
It was a truck loaded with dynamites. If it was a terror attack as you claim, will a serious terrorist strike a lonely road in the outskirts of town around 1am, far away from occupied houses, where there is no possibility of casualties?

lastempero:


Mumu,just typing gibberish to support a failed govt. Cant even make any atom of sense with his wacky analysis. Hunger will soon eat the remaining grey matter in ur brain.

Eteka1:
You figure it out.

MetaPhysical:
We must use law of physics to analyze the crater, regardless of the blast agent that caused it.

Back when America was fighting in Fallujah and the insurgents were using IEDs there were similar craters of lesser scale but resulting from explosives buried into the ground with heat and vibration sensors placed on the road surface. A small car can pass over the sensor and not cause a reaction but if a large truck, typical of the American reinforced Armored Vehicles, approach it, the vibration alone could set off the sensor and cause an ERUPTION with upward force that lifts the truck about two storeys up in the air before it freed-drops back to ground and disintegrates.

This crater in Akure shows motive. A pre-arranged deployment. A choreographed act!

When an explosive discharges on the surface, it disperses force in all directions because it is uncontrolled, uncontained and not directed....zero choreography!


Here are questions to ask -
1. Where are debris from the transporting truck. A crater this deep will not leave a truck or trucks in one piece. In fact it cannot be driven out of there because the explosion will also cause a secondary explosion in its fuel tank and burn it down, assuming it remained in one piece, which is impossible.

2. There is a road, and then we see two dark tracks that looks like rails or pipes. It cannot be railway tracks considering the sharp turn angle towards the edge of the crater. What are those tracks?

3. What is the relationship of the damaged buildings to the crater? There is no connection on the ground between the two. If this image was from drone it can be scaled to connect the nearby buildings to the crater. Why has that not been done?

4. The shape of the crater looks like the mouth of a funnel and is uniform around. The bottom-center of the crater is the point from which the energy force distributed out. The force went off from a subterranean core and erupted upward and outward, exhuming soil.

5. An explosion from surface down into the ground penetrates a hole...not a funnel!

There is a bigger and hidden agenda than the police have owned up to. Now, since the police acted as the mouthpiece for this agenda....they must also account for why their story is not supported by the physics and character of the crater.

People this is the right thread to ask this question. When I was young, living in Ogoja cross river state, some few minutes past six after a light rain shower something unimaginable came from the sky like a huge ball of red light creating a thunder like noise in the sky and landed in an open grassland creating partial darkness by creating half current to electricity supply throughout the small town of Igoli. The impact was huge and threatening and it happened few meters away from our house.

The following day, I went to the location to ascertain what hit the town only to discover a football shaped ball of steel buried in a meter hole sweeping the entire area with shockwaves. I was able to hull it out of the hole but too heavy, I just dropped it there and went away.

The little town believe it was a lightning strike but only me saw what landed cos it happened at close proximity with me witnessing first hand.

Now my people, who can tell what it is. A smooth ball of steel?
