Explosion Rocks Gas Station In Port Harcourt

In what will come across as a really startling development, a gas plant has caught fire in Rivers State.

The gas plant, along the Obirikwere bridge axis of the East West road in Port Harcourt, River State, was gutted by fire, Daily Post reports.

The incident occurred around 8am on Wednesday.

Officials of the Federal Fire Service, however, arrived at the scene of the incident to put out the fire.

An official of the fire service said the fire was caused by a “leakage from a tank” in the gas station.

The number of casualties are yet to be made known but eyewitnesses said at least three people may have been affected by the fire.
