Hey, bad o.

Try something new today, make money online today HERE

Wahala just day wear brezi every day. God have Mercy ooo

If not because of d usual mess that comes with d use of stoves...I just would have stuck with it...this gas thing ehn, any little mistake...boooom!

The way d thing flies around makes it even more dangerous than petrol sef...carrying d cylinder along a times....scary

Any casualties ....i mean death or injury?

must everything be business in Nigeria, why must a local gas shop be sited near a residential area....

Those ones standing there don't know that it's possible for canisters to start start flying around

Everything is wrong with our mentality in this country....Just imagine where a gas shop is located. . No planning and safety

RIP

What the heck are those people doing around there?

The relevant authorities should quickly rise up to the situation pleaseeee and make sure life and properties are secured.

And all these LAGOS LOOKERS should gtfo there!

Federal government should put an end to those selling gas in shop because is very risky to the lives of the people in that particular area

Most gas shop owners don't take any safety measures, no fire extinguisher, no training, no ventilation.

Imagine some idiots store cylinders in shops and lock it up. And most of those gas shops are located in residential area.

How did a gas fire kill an old woman who came to a city for Omugwo? It happened that on the cold dry harmattan morning some years ago, a gas 'boy' was filing up gas for a customer and while he tried to tilt his gas cylinder upside down so that gas can flow into his customer's cylinder, the cylinder fell and the gas hose cut and the dry harmattan air was in the direction of a nearby woman who roasted yam and fish - BOOM! Fire started in an instant and spread so fast to another shop.

Meanwhile, the old woman was inside her daughter's (her daughter was briefly away with her grandchild) shop, apparently unaware of what happened. Before you can say, Jack Obukowho Chinwetalu, the woman got killed, her daughter who tried to rescue her out of the shop got burnt badly.

The matter was reported to the police and the gas boy was arrested. One thing led to another, the boy was released, that it wasn't intentional bla bla bla.

Gas etc should be sold at filling stations not one small shop like this

People need to know that gas is not stuff to play with, if you don't have the necessary facility you'll he running at your own risk. I think there should be licence for all those that deal with gas.

Hope they insured the shop!..��

this is terrible

Unfortunately, water does not quench
gas fire.. .

You are thinking what I am thinking. Ignorance is a disease. Some cylinders could just explode and we will start wasting resting in peace.

Lagos state government needs to start banning these gas shops. They just open shop without any safety measures.

These Fulani herdsmen have started again

Buhari pls call your brothers to order na
