Sources are divided over what looks like another attack of an oil facility, this time in the Omoku area of Rivers State.
It was reported Tuesday afternoon that a manifold delivers oil from a facility in Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni Local Government Area (ONELGA) of the state.
A source that swore to high heavens and produced photos told newsmen that an explosion occurred at the facility in a place called Okwawriwa town in the morning of Tuesday. This came after the shock of the bombing of the Trans Niger pipeline that delivers oil to the Bonny export terminal.
The unnamed source said the people of the area woke up to observe raging fire at the facility located some distance away from residential homes.
It was gathered that the facility conveys petroleum products from Seplat, Agip, and Shell, from the ONELGA and parts of Imo State to Brass in Bayelsa State. (Businessday)
