Two children were killed in a kerosene explosion which occurred at Ikono Ibom in Uyo Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State. Their father, Mr Michael Nsikak, a woman from the same community and her three-month old baby suffered severe burns.
According to Mr Nsikak, a tricycle (keke) operator, who also operates a small poultry farm near his house in Ikot Enyingne Ikono:
"I bought kerosene from a filling station along Idoro road as I closed from my Keke business. Upon getting home, I decided to light up the lantern in my poultry farm to keep my birds warm but needed to top up the kerosene in the lamp as it was soon going off.
