The Trans-Niger Pipeline (TNP) in Bodo community, Gokana local government area (LGA) of Rivers state, has resumed operations.
On Monday night, fire erupted on a segment of the TNP along the Bodo-Bonny road.
In the video of the incident on social media, flames were seen rising in the sky from the inferno.
The TNP, a critical federal oil transport line, feeds crude oil to the Bonny export terminal in Rivers state.
The explosion led to a temporary shutdown and raised concerns about potential environmental damage and oil supply disruption in the region.
But on Wednesday, Tony Okonedo, Renaissance Group’s spokesperson, revealed that operations had resumed.
“Operations have resumed. We previously suspended operations to respond to a third-party interference but now we have resumed,” Okonedo said.
The explosion of the pipeline came amid political tension in Rivers.
