A petroleum pipeline has been confirmed to be leaking in the Abule-Soba area of the Amuwo-Odofin Local government area of Lagos.
It can be recalled that a major petroleum pipeline exploded in the same community on March 15, this year, which killed over 20 people and displaced hundreds.
The Lagos State Emergency Management Agency confirmed the current leak, urging residents to be cautious around the area.
According to LASEMA, “The agency and other first responders remain on high alert. The NNPC has been informed of the incident.
“Members of the public are cautioned to proceed with extreme caution in and around the area to prevent any form of explosion or ignition from naked flame.”
