About three bodies were subsequently recovered from the scene.
Giving an update on Sunday, the NNPCL spokesperson, Olufemi Soneye, in a statement said about five bodies are still missing.
He stated that intensified search and rescue operations for the remaining bodies are currently ongoing.
“Once again, our hearts and prayers are with family members of this unfortunate incident,” he added.
