Gas explodes at TNP along Bodo-Bonny road in Rivers

A loud explosion has affected a section of the Trans Niger Pipeline (TNP) in Bodo Community, Gokana Local Government Area of Rivers State, sending thick black smoke into the sky and igniting a fast-spreading fire in the surrounding mangroves.

The incident occurred late Monday night near the ongoing Bodo-Bonny Road construction site.

Videos emerging on Tuesday morning showed flames raging through the area, raising concerns about potential environmental damage and disruption to oil transportation.

The Trans Niger Pipeline, a critical federal oil transport infrastructure, supplies crude to the Bonny Export Terminal in Rivers State.

When contacted, the Rivers State Police Public Relations Officer, Grace Iringe-Koko, stated that she would investigate the situation and provide updates.

However, no official response had been received at the time of filing this report.
