At least six persons have been killed at a gas explosion in Owaza, Ukwa West local government area of Abia State.

Though the details of the victims are yet to be ascertained, our correspondent gathered that at about 9:50am on Sunday, the victims stormed an illegal oil refining site in Owaza.

They were said to have used a gas cylinder to disconnect an oil pot which exploded in the process and killed the six on the spot, a source who pleaded anonymity told ABN TV.
