Explosion Rocks Edo Government House

An heavy explosion late Saturday night reportedly rocked the Edo state government house which serves as the official residence of the Edo State Governor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole.

According to Point Blank News....


The explosion, suspected to have been triggered by an improvised explosive device (IED) reportedly went off at about 10pm local time, targeting the office of the wife of a former Secretary to the State government, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu.

One of the  security men guarding the premises reportedly
escaped death  by the whiskers.

Eye-witnesses said a large section of the building was destroyed by the powerful explosion and the fire which ensued.

Police sources said officers of the anti-bomb squad had cordoned off the area and would begin investigating the attack.
