An explosion has rocked a section of the Trans Niger Pipeline in Bodo Community in Gokana Local Government Area of Rivers State.
The explosion reportedly occurred on Monday night along the critical export pipeline that transports crude to the Bonny Terminal.
The affected section of the major pipeline is currently on fire, though the exact cause of the explosion remains unknown at this time.
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.
