Two people have died and 10 others sustained injuries following a gas explosion on Thursday at Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL), Abeokuta, Ogun State.
The incident came less than 48 hours after a blast occurred in a hotel owned by former Governor Gbenga Daniel, killing two persons.
Eyewitnesses said the explosion in the library occurred around 11am on Thursday.
They said the cause of the blast was gas cylinders kept in the event centre, which exploded, throwing the staff into shock and pandemonium.
Eyewitnesses said rescuers within the library premises rushed to the scene shortly after the explosion and evacuated both the dead and the living.
