Confusion gripped the city of Ibadan, Oyo state, on Tuesday night following a powerful explosion heard throughout the area. Reports indicate that the explosion, occurring around past 7:00 p.m., resulted in significant damage to several houses in multiple locations, as observed by X users.

While some X users suggested that the explosion was due to a gas-related incident, our reporter was unable to confirm the cause and the extent of casualties at the time of filing this report.
