A loud explosion shook the Iju area of Lagos shortly on Thursday afternoon as thick smoke bellowed into the sky.

Iju is located between Agege and Ojodu Berger and is a densely populated area in the Ikeja Local Government Area.

An eyewitness said the explosion was from a gas plant located around Iju Hills and close to Grailland.

Panic-stricken residents of Iju and surrounding communities such as Akute, Ajuwon, Ishaga, Fagba and Alagbole are asking for immediate intervention of the fire service and other emergency services.

According to our reporter at the scene, properties worth millions of naira were destroyed.

Details later.
