Expect the same DPR officials who were settled when the plant was built to swing into action. The sanctions no go get part 2.

The plant owners don buy market, especially as this has hit social media.

This is typical growth without progress. Nigeria is a practical zoo. How can any reasonable fellow operate liquefied petroleum gas plant without adequate equipment to fight accidental fire? The plant must have its unit of fire fighters and necessary compounds to fight fire outbreak or explosion.
E-Warrior...take a stroll to the gas plant, after due enquiry and 'supervision', come back and edit/modify your post.

Life, so unpredictable! Who would have thought that all these people won't be around to celebrate Xmas and New Year with their families?

Bros we need a grass root reorientation in a form of new country. Nigeria is marked with essence to get rich or acquire money quickly without the incorporation of common sense. Nobody should be allowed to operate LPG plant without a simple automated device to spray retardants on accidental fire.
Inasmuch as I agree with you, I also think in this case an automatically activated fire spray couldn't have done much. The force of the explosion alone is capable of killing a man standing close by even without the fire touching him.

I live about 3 km away from there and when the explosion happened our windows were vibrating and we could see the smoke, some ashes flew into our compound. I thought it was Boko Haram. Might be more than 30 killed there.

Fifty? That is pretty much. Were they all workers or they were affected by the blast radius?

Unfortunately, till this very minute, i still do not find gas usage comfortable for me. My phobia for gas no be here.

Adequate risk assessment of daily operations to nip at-risk behaviours in the bud
No anthony401, i disagree wt u on gas fires. Fire enginesmanned by seasoned firefighter and equipped with foam dispersant medium fights gas fire. Use of automated sprinkler cools flash temperature. Good safety culture by Mgt could prevent incidents like these.
The best known gas safety system so far is the water mist dispersion type,using high pressure thin nozzle exist.It sprays atomized water around the environment or equipment. This helps breakdown the gas-fuel chain reaction when a gas leakage or explosion occur,through absorbing enthalpy or possible source of heat.
This is not a job for fire fighters but an integrated fire and explosion engineering safety measure that should be present in all explosive gas plants.

oga nothing can be used to quench gas fire
sorry Oga you are wrong! CO2 and foam is used to fight gas fire. Co2 displaces the oxygen which completes the fire triangle....

Having a good means of fighting fire us good but more effort should be put into ensuring safe operations to prevent accidents like this. Safety training and awareness for both workforce and public, visible mgt commitment and government regulation can help prevent future recurrence. Sadly, HSE professionals won't be part of the investigation... that is if one is done. Everything in naija is politicised. Fire cases on the increase, urgent intervention is needed.

Truly we cannot question God, but we can question a lax system that allows such preventable accidents to happen ad nauseum.

Bro this happened few meters away from my house,this pix is the frontage of my compound. Let me logically state it clear that when I travelled down to Uru umudim Nnewi and saw the siting of that gas plant their,I never liked the concept at all because of some thing of this nature and now look at it and also I wonder the conscience people have in allowing Chicason acquire those land.
