Another Petrol Tanker Crashes In Lagos by stinggy(m): 6:36am On Jan 10, 2014 |
Another tanker laden with 33,000 litres of petrol fell in the Iju area of Lagos State on Thursday, spilling some of its contents on the road. The incident came barely 24 hours after a petrol tanker crashed into passenger buses in the Kirikiri area of the state, killing at least 15 people. PUNCH Metro learnt that the truck, belonging to Conoil, with number plate, XB467AKN, also hit an electric pole along Ajuwon Road. It was learnt that no life was lost in the incident. Fire fighters from Agege Fire Station, as well as technical staff of Power Holding Company of Nigeria and policemen prevented vehicles from plying the road while the incident lasted. Around 8am, the remaining fuel in the vehicle was transferred into another tanker. The Director, Lagos State Fire Service, Razaq Fadipe, told our correspondent that the tanker fell around 2.21am. He said, “Around 2.21am, another fuel tanker laden with 33,000 litres of petrol fell close to the entrance of Grain Movement premises. There was heavy spillage of fuel, but we were able to prevent a fire.” Source: www.punchng.com/news/another-petrol-tanker-crashes-in-lagos/ |
