An account by an eyewitness said the explosions happened due to altercation between the youths of Rumuji, who were laying claims to Igboukwu field, the venue of the rally.

It was gathered that the youths prevented the party from holding the rally at the field.

It’s not clear at press time what led to the explosion and at what time the APC was allowed access into the venue to hold its rally.
