This is to correct the wrong impression being created from some quarters as regards the explosion that rocked Akure less than 48hours ago.

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. 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.

Check this video below 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.

So when the truck caught fire the other vehicles in the convoy ran away, abi? Alright, where is the wreckage of the truck carrying the ordinances?
