RCCG denies explosion at Redemption Camp, reveals what happened

The leadership of the Redeemed Christian Church of God has refuted the viral reports of an explosion in the premises of the Redemption City.

Naija News understands that RCCG Public Relations Unit, in a statement on Monday, explained that the incident occurred inside an Axella Gas depot on the Sagamu bound traffic in between the Car Park C gate and the main gate of the Redemption City.

The church added that the combined efforts of its Fire Service and that of the Lagos state brought the fire under control.

The church also empathized with the people involved in the unfortunate gas explosion that occurred in the early hours of Monday, August 29, 2022.

The statement partly reads, “Against the news making the round, the incident was completely outside of the Redemption City and our fire service team only responded as part of our community service support to our neighbours within the environ.

“We thank God the incident has been put under control and will like to inform all residents and visitors to the Redemption City that there is no scare of any sort and everyone can go about their lawful and godly activities. Thank you.”
