A petrol-laden tanker exploded on Karu Bridge along the Abuja-Nyanya-Keffi Road on Wednesday, sparking a massive fire that destroyed at least 30 vehicles.
The explosion reportedly occurred when the tanker, carrying Premium Motor Spirit, lost control and crashed on the bridge, igniting a blaze that spread rapidly.
Eyewitnesses reported hearing multiple blasts, with thick smoke rising into the sky as people fled the scene.
Emergency responders and security personnel quickly arrived, cordoning off the area and directing traffic away to aid firefighting efforts.
Rescue operations are ongoing, but the exact number of casualties remains unconfirmed at press time.
