“Sending explosives through public transport is illegal, hence we had cause to intercept this lady who said she was sent by somebody to send it to another person.“We are on the trail of the other suspects who are also involved in it, but are now at large.” He also said the explosives were suspected to be some of those used in one of the construction companies in Akamkpa, which the husband may have smuggled.
