You did not even say RIP to the death, well, I guess Buhari is more important to you than RIP to the death. Buhari must be your Dad and knows you by name. If not, I question your sanity.

Meanwhile, may the Souls of those who died on the avoidable inferno find their ways beyond the veil.

A different route needs to be created for these tanker drivers. The dangers they pose to other road users is way too much.

The tanks need to be fortified in such a way to withstand the impact of a collision because am sure most of the tanks used by tanker drivers are just a sheet of metal bent and welded together.

God please help Save Nigerians and Nigeria

You will see some news hoping to hear first hand information on Nairaland but nah, na stewpeed comments you go just dey read.

so so sad.
oil is supposed to be moved through pipelines, but vandals and bunkerers will never stop their criminal activities,and when the government want to stop these criminals, some people will start blaming the government, so we will continue to rely on tankers for the much needed oil.
same thing happened in idimu in june2015, the oshodi-apapa expressway is also a didisaster waiting to happen.
RIP to the dead . . .

Just wanna ask a simple question...who is supposed to check the safety indices and road worthiness of these tankers and other large vehicles? Is it FRSC? Cos I have never seen such before. All they do is 'disturb' small vehicles

[quote author=DonDemu post=68913493]

You are the first person.

You see a tanker fall on a tarred road,the next logical thing to do is to run because any car that passes with speed automatically ignites fire due to friction between the tire and the road. Rip

what fo you nean different route?

You reacted smartly that's all. Who are you that God would save only you but love to watch others even the kids in the bus roast like barbecue? I'm sure the loving God we all made to believe isn't that cruel to torment his own creation that way unless something is wrong with the Christian religion we were taught. Just count yourself lucky. RIP to the dead. This further exposes Nigeria as a failed state to the international community.

but so far you hve been the one who started it.

redcliff:

Another road specially for big vehicles.

It really does not matter what you believe. Death is sure for everyone, so is judgement. We must all give an account of what we did with our lives.
RIP to the dead and may God in His mercies save my country.

Its a pity people lost their lives in this tragedy. After this incident, a God up there will still judge and condemn some of them to hell despite the ordeal they went through in their final seconds in life before coming to him. This one na real double wahala for dead body. Na real frying pan to fire.
May their families have the strength to bear the loss.
From Jos to russia to Lagos, it has been a black June indeed.

May God never us die untimely death....

you think some of the people who died did not cover themselves with the blood of Jesus ? Lol ! You think they did not at one time or the other pray the same prayer ?

WOW!! the saddest part is that we learn nothing when things like these happen, everyone goes to church, Thanks God it wasn't them and we return to the same routine, no new safety measures are taken, nothing. This is just too sad!!

I heard in some developed countries, tankers and trailers don't plight during day time, only in the night... God help us in this country.

Nigerians are too useless. they obviously don't like what is good for them. they just want bad things to be happening so that they will always be complaining. Pipes were constructed and channeled all over the country for transportation of PMS, Gas, Kerosene etc to avoid such disaster but all they do is vandalize these pipes in local areas just to steal. all we do is blame the government for everything. Even if a different route is to be created as you said, most people will be against it because it will encroach in their land. they will come out with cutlasses to fight the road constructors.

splmosixx:

And what about you?
Are you not a citizen of Nigeria?
Don't you have solutions to the problem?
will buhari remain president for ever? smh

Nigerian government should have efficient rail network that can be used to transport petroleum products or have pipeline for transporting petroleum products. Rip to the dead.

In the documentary the men that built America in 1886 America transport fuel through pipeline can't we achieve this?

You are right. The people are mainly at fault for what happens to them. But the question to ask ourselves is, those people that got roasted at Otedola bridge today, are they the ones who vandalized the pipelines for personal gains?
It is wrong for one set of people to suffer loss of lives and property for the crimes of another set. Which is where the government still comes in, to make sure our pipelines are safe and well protected, railways working to reduce the number of trailers and trucks on the road, and proper monitoring of vehicle road worthiness.

I read somewhere on nairaland that Nigerians love to suffer after I criticize the guy. I went in to think about what he said i began to see sense in what he said i realize that what he said was somehow true.

Na today we Begin dey talk m

Government please from coconut Busstop to mile 2 is waiting to experience this kind of quack mire. Please remember our constitution in the first page the aim and objective of a sound government is to protect lives and property. Please that road needs urgent attention to avert the unknown. God bless Nigeria.Rip to the dead.

It is a collective thing. we need to cooperate rather than fighting ourselves. That's just the solution. It doesn't matter whether those who died in the inferno were the ones who vandalize the pipelines or not. Once we begin to see that our negative action can affect others in a dangerous way, that will be the beginning of our solution in Nigeria. Otherwise nothing will still change. we will keep on exchanging the blames from one corner to another. from Buhari to Fulani herdsmen to Fifa referee to tanker drivers. Imagine a driver in one of the bus i was in left his engine one while asking the fuel attendant to refuel his car. when we advice him to off his engine, he was just shouting and saying pour the fuel make i dey go joor. if the car no gree start na we go push am baa? The fuel attendant refused. and he was saying we too dey fear. he just refused to see how disastrous that act was to himself, us in the bus and people around him.
