Residents of Maitama, a highbrow area in Abuja, have raised alarm over what they described as an explosion in the area.
In a series of tweets via X on Wednesday, some residents said the sound emanated from a nearby dump site.
According to an X user, A Y Rafindadi, two men sustained various degrees of injuries.
He said: “A truck came to pick up BPE trash, whilst they were in the process of emptying the second trash can, an explosion occurred, I was merely 4 mts away from the explosion (on that pavement) when it happened. 2 men where injured rushed to the hospital. & my windscreen was shattered.
