Governor Akeredolu Visits Akure Explosion Site, Gives Report Of Event (photos) by OndoFirstBorn(op): 11:08am On Mar 28, 2020
In less than 9hours, Ondo State Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN has visited the site of the Explosion that happened in Akure, the state capital for assessment.

The Governor gave report of the event via his twitter handle after he was briefed by the security chiefs.

In his tweets: "I have been briefed by the security chiefs that in the early hours of Saturday March 28th, a vehicle in a convoy transporting explosives to a storage facility in a neighbouring state developed a fault while in transit along the Akure Owo Road about 2km from the Akure Airport."

"Security personnel and other individuals transporting the ordinances noticed smoke from the vehicle. After several attempts to extinguish the resulting fire failed, the vehicle and its consignment ignited causing a massive explosion that was felt in Akure and its environs."

"Presently, efforts are being made to ascertain if there are casualties. Following my visit to the scene, I have directed that the area be cordoned off to allow the explosive ordinance department/bomb squad to extricate the vehicle buried underground because ...it is unclear if there are still explosives that are yet to be detonated . Everything is under control and I will be updating the public on any new developments."

The Governor himself don’t even know what hit him. He only have to say this to ease tension in the region.

True talk. No sign of military vehicles there. I would expect to see damaged military cars escorting the one with the explosive. Even the one carrying the device that exploded is not there. The crater is clean and debris free. How can an explosive burry the vehicle underground? When it's not a sinkhole that swallowed it. I am beginning to look at this thing with corner eye.

This recent bomb explosion in Lagos and Akure should be investigated properly. SW stop backing destruction of your own land and people with bombs why you provide cover up insisting it was thunder, meteorite or asteroid ☄️. Stop been used. Yoruba ronu.

Call for investigation instead of swallowing everything thrown to you. Three multiple bombing in small space of time.

Yes, one of us must definitely wake up from slumbering in tribal perspective, propaganda and inept conspiracy theories.

They said it cos they know that many Nigerians don't know shit! A vehicle with explosive that just detonated will sink carrying all evidence and swallowing them up completely as in bthe soil just swallowed everything and covered itself up so not a part will peep out Lol.
All the damaged escort cars also sank with it? All the glass and parts that blew off the car sank too? All wreckages sank? Nigerians are an interesting bunch.

I wonder. How on earth will the truck sink. Something that will send debris flying everywhere, the said sank. When e no be say dem bury am. Instead of them doing proper investigations. I no blame them though, no CCTV to show what really happened, all we hear na dis one said, “that one said he saw”, “she said she heard”

We saw a perfect example of bomb explosion in the case of Qassem Soleimani’s case. We saw the vehicles at the scene.

Father!

Ondo seems to be trending since.

Anyway, if you own an NGO come to akoko south west and donate, I volunteer myself and a handful of friends still here to help sensitize the community. They seem not to be aware about hygiene and social distance.

Send me a message. Or send me a address so I can send a message. Thank you

Re: Governor Akeredolu Visits Akure Explosion Site, Gives Report Of Event (photos) by Nobody: 11:49am On Mar 28, 2020
Why is no one naming the irresponsible company that transported explosives on an unreliable vehicle, while ignoring all safety protocols? Which government agency approved the trip? What were the materials being transported?

There is liability and the governor is trying to shield some incompetent company
