But the sky is wide enough now that people in nearby city or urban areas will have seen the light. Haba! Even at that time of the day, people will have still be awake. Some people, keeping vigil or on duty.

NASA can't monitor everywhere, every angle of the earth...

Trace elements or pieces of the meteoroid will have still been found na.

what does d govt got to lose if it meteor and tell said its an explosive trump.. Fink about rit

Ofadaman:


You're a geologist, he's a professor of geology.
Can you not see the difference, and how your disagreement doesn't mean a thing

hammer0:



Not with the amount of bombs the Truck was carrying.

Just go to youtube and watch examples.

The parts left would have traveled very far in the blast scattered.

why does the American govt need to conceal area 51

yenereal:
Prof might be correct but the police that claimed responsibility should be called to explain. Who drove the said vehicle? How many people were therein? Did the driver die?

You can imagine the kind of country we're living in. The impact I saw on the picture should make one to believe the prof.

I was wondering if a bomb explosion could cause a crater as wide and deep as that.

Dunno what the professor is saying but the people escorting the truck containing explosives have said their truck developed fault and exploded. That's what first hand eye witnesses have said. The only thing u can tell me is that the meteor hit the truck.. or that it made their truck disappear.

If it’s a METEOR it should be VISIBLE

Danhumprey:
A meteor? And yet no one could see the speck of light it most likely will have generated on its entry into the Earth's atmosphere?


Nah! It can't be a meteor.

chinavs9ja:

I lived in Akure, there was lightning in the sky before we heard the sound of an explosion.

johnlegend01:
Oga Professor, I disagree vehemently!!!

I am a Mining Engineer by study and by profession by God's Grace. I can categorically confirm that commercial explosives were being conveyed from an explosive company in the South west to a quarry in the South south. EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) officers of the Nigeria Police were escorting the said explosives. The explosives detonated because the truck went in flames, according to report. Whether that cause is true or not is another case entirely. The one true fact is that "EXPLOSIVES IN A TRUCK DETONATED". The impact of the explosion is what you saw, while some witnessed ground vibration, air blast and noise.

For those that want to believe Mr Professor, try to check online videos of blasting done in quarries to know what explosives can do to rocks.

Check this video to understand the power of explosives.

In addition, some people said it was a bomb. Bomb explosives are different from commercial explosives. You would notice that there was no trace of fire or burn on and around the location.
