A spokesperson for the police in Ebonyi state, Loveth Odah said the victim of the blast was a Mobile Police Officer on special deployment to Afikpo North Local Government Area of Ebonyi State.

The police Inspector identified as Idi Aminu reportedly died as a result of an accidental hand grenade explosion.

Odah said, “He mistakenly hit the lead of his grenade which was hanging on his waist with his elbow resulting in the deadly explosion. So, there is no bomb blast or explosion in Ebonyi. The general public should disregard the information.”

His remains have been evacuated to a mortuary.
