This is what happened in my area tonight

Fuel tanker had brake failure, and fail, if you see explosion,

But it took like five minutes before it started to
blow, so people ran away quickly, cos it fell in front of a filling station

I can't believe my eyes

Then before we knew it,the fire started burning people's houses

One by one

It was spreading

To our great surprise one nonsense fire service car that came and before you know it, the thing drove off

For complete two hours we still trying to stop fire

It started around 8pm,but it was about 10.30pm that good fire service came from delta but by then things has gone worst

Many lost their business, while others lost their homes

If you see people been frustrated ehhhh, the first house that caught fire, people had to carry the owner a woman out by force, cos she said we should just leave her to be burnt as well

Two filling station was erased completely

Na in the morning that we will see the rate of damages done

Lalastica, Seun

Tragic . . .

But u mean no fire service in Anambra state or why did they have to drive off?

Wow that's tragic. As usual hope they got insurance. I'm glad nobody hurt though.

Oh God! I hope no soul was lost? Gov Obiano and other well meaning Igbo's should rally round and save the day. my prayer and love are with those that lost properties at the unfortunate incident.

Nonsense... When are we going to get things right in this country...


Tell me what it takes Anambra Goverment to purchase Fire trucks to cover most business area in Anambra.. Every year we always wake up to stories like this yet they just aLlow it to happen and status quo continues.. This is the 4th time in 4 years and you still hear stories of fire truck no where to be found..

If they can't stop fuel truck from moving aroud busy oNitsha roads during the day, then they should provide fire service incase scenarios like this occur.

This a sheer neglect From Obiano goverment.
November 22 2015 still on my mind.

Sad.

This is serious, wch part of onitsha is that?? Full detail pls
