Bomb Explosion At Rivers State Deputy Governor’s Office

The security situation in Rivers state Nigeria is
getting porous by the day as an explosive device
(IED) was thrown at the Deputy Governor, Tele
Ikuru's administration block in the wee hours of
Tuesday Dec 17, 2013.
Though the Deputy Governor survived with no injury,
the bomb explosion caused some damage to the
building.
There has not been any official statement yet but Mr.
Godswill Jumbo, the Press Secretary to the Deputy
Governor confirmed that an incident like that
happened, adding that he would issue a statement
later.
Some facts are also emerging that the fire that
engulfed the old section of the Mile One Rumuoji
Market today may have been caused by an explosive
device thrown into the stores in the market.
Mrs. Ibim Semenitari, the state Commissioner of
Information and Communications, said that arson
was not ruled out in the burning of the market as
explosions were heard in some parts of the state
capital the previous night.
Ibimi said the explosives might have been aimed at
the market.
More details to emerge later.
