Two more victims of the explosion that rocked the Bodija area of Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, on Tuesday, have died, bringing the number of deaths to five.
Governor Seyi Makinde, on Wednesday, said three victims died and 77 others were injured in the explosion.
However, his Special Adviser on Security Matters, Fatai Owoseni, in an update on the development on Thursday, told newsmen that two more dead bodies were recovered from the rumble of the explosion in the morning.
“Rescue operation is still ongoing. As of yesterday, we had three casualties but this morning, just about 30 minutes ago, I got information from the security operatives supporting the medical team that two more dead bodies were recovered this morning.
“A lot of conversations have been going on, a lot of interfacing with the people so that they will see transparency in what the government is doing.
“The security agencies, especially the police, the DSS being supported by the Nigerian Army team EOD Unit as well are putting the bits and pieces of information together to ensure that discreet information is done towards prosecution to ensure that whoever, either directly, remotely connected with that incident are brought to justice,” he said.
