The leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has claimed that the Miyetti Allah Kaute Hore bombed Abule-Ado area around Festac Town in Amuwo Odofin Local Government area of Lagos State.
Allnews reported that the Abule Ado incident started on the morning of 15 March 2020 around 9 am was put off in the afternoon around 11 am.
According to the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), the massive fire was caused when a truck rammed into some gas cylinders stacked in a gas processing plant near an already existing vandalised petroleum gas pipeline which triggered the blast.
The Nigerian National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) announced that as of 15 March 2020, the number of casualties are 15 persons and 25 injured persons with 50 houses destroyed. This includes the students and the facilities at the Bethelehem Girls College, Abule-Ado which was destroyed.
