Massive explosion ripped through a warehouse full of fireworks in Nigeria's largest city (Lagos) on Wednesday, sparking a fire that threatened surrounding city blocks and sending a plume of thick smoke high into the sky. At least one person died and 15 others were wounded, emergency officials said.
The blast occurred around 9 a.m. in the Jankara area of Lagos Island, a neighbourhood of narrow streets and tall cement buildings holding shops and housing people sometimes a dozen to a room in the megacity of Lagos. The force of the explosion echoed miles away and shook windows.
