Also heard it from gbenga aruleba,but when will Nigerians learn?? Jesse fire outbreak was a very tragic one and now another,I wonder how much they will get compared to their lives.

Is this foolishness or poverty

People who fail to learn from history are doomed by it ....

May their souls rest in peace.

Nigeria "jaga-jaga". I blame our Government for neglecting their youth. Jonorthern should empower youths instead sitting in Aso rock being controlled by some Northerner. mtcheeew!

Kennyblues: God, where is thy face

Bros, please leave God out of this as it is common knowledge that an explosion will most likely follow in a situation like this. So, why risking your life and expecting God to protect you at the same time? It's like tempting God to me, except for those who were in that vicinity by accident and didn't have enough time to leave.

And will they ever learn? If another tanker falls on the same spot two days hence, some people will still risk it while claiming disparity in fate or luck. SMH.

Some people have already put their signature for the death. How will a sensible person scoop a flamable product like fuel. I'm sure many of them used metal objects to do it.

Its GEJ that caused this, he didn't provide enof security or emergency outfit to cordon off the area so that people will not be able to scoop petrol..

Dis is becoming a regular event in Nigeria. Pple always like take life 4 granted. U see fire u still go ahead to put ur hands. Govt shld fix our roads so as to averts dis incident. Tanker drivers shld avoid drinking ogogoro so they can see danger ahead.
