There has been a disaster at the Meckason gas plant located in Nnewi, Anambra state south east Nigeria earlier today. A large explosion was heard and the gas plant went up in flames. Thick smoke enveloped the entire area. Scores of residents and hustlers for daily bread were roasted in the inferno. As at press time, the cause of the inferno was unknown. May the souls of the dead rest in perfect peace. Amen.
