Many communities in Ogun State have been thrown into another round of blackout following a reported explosion of the Ota-industrial 33KV feeder.

Our correspondent gathered that there was a snap on the feeder which was caused as a result of an explosion that affected several transformers including those at Ilaro and Papalanto.
