An explosion has rocked the Trans-Niger Pipeline at Bodo, Gokana Local Government Area of Rivers State.
The affected section of the major pipeline is currently on fire, though the exact cause of the explosion remains unknown at this time.
The explosion reportedly occurred on Monday night along the critical export pipeline that transports crude to the Bonny Terminal.
Thick black smoke was seen billowing into the atmosphere, with a raging fire spreading fast into the mangrove from a video that emerged on Tuesday morning.
The TNP is a federal transport line that supplies oil to the Bonny Export Terminal in Rivers State.
Authorities have yet to determine whether the incident resulted from human interference, especially amid recent threats by militant groups to attack oil installations in response to the Federal Government’s withholding of Rivers State’s allocation due to the ongoing political crisis.
When a PUNCH correspondent contacted the Police spokesperson in the state, Grace Iringe-Koko said she would find out and get back to the media outlet, though she had yet to do so as of the time of filing this report.
