The Kogi State Government has confirmed the detonation of an explosive device suspected to be a bomb at the Local Government secretariat.

State Security Adviser, Duro Jerry Omodara, who confirmed the development in Lokoja, on Tuesday, said the intention of the saboteurs may be to cause panic during the election to prevent people from coming out to vote.

Omodara said no life was lost and that security men have been deployed to the area to see that normalcy is restored.

The LG headquarters is a few metres away from the office of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in the area.
