Recall that Governor Makinde, during an on-the-spot assessment to the site of the explosion in Ibadan on the night of the blast, disclosed to newsmen that the unfortunate incident was due to the storage of explosive device in one of the residences by an illegal miner, vowing to leave no stone unturned to bring culprits to justice and succour for victims.
