Just hearing about this. I know that place quite well. A mechanic shop and other small shops are there along with residential buildings. I think it’s a close or Smtn.

I live in one of the streets off Osolo Way which is just about 3 minutes walk to where the accident happened.
The whole neighborhood was thrown into serious panic when a very heavy and loud Bomb sounded at about 6.30 pm on Tuesday night. Everyone was confused as we didn't know where it came from and what caused it.
Some people said it was an Electric transformer that got blown off. It was much later that we heard that it happened at a Gas shop at Inua Muhammad street off Afariogun street.
It was already dark by the time we heard the details so I couldn't go there to check.

What is DPR and the others doing to educate people on hazards of cooking gas? A fuel thrice as volatile as PMS is what untrained persons handle carelessly.

NOA and other media houses can educate the people about dangers of LPG through ads on tv and radio. We need to be serious as a country else we won't get anything right

You will see people selling cooking gas every nook and cranny as if they are selling water! Govt should set up control agency to guide against this carelessness. Rip to the dead and quick recovery to the injured.

The fact cooking gas is a potential bomb is enough reason its use and distribution should be regulated closely but what do we have? A govt that is so irresponsible waiting for avoidable deaths befofe pretending to be bothered, just like banditry causing havoc in the north with no tangible response by the govt (except when fulanis are victims). It seems NOA only get involved these days when an NGO is there to give them funds otherwise its mum. Visit any LPG plant and see the rusted expired cylinders on display.

Terrible gas explosion always in Lagos State

The only action taken by Nigerian to prevent this from reoccurring is typing

Condolences to the Deceased Families...

May The Mercy of God locate those Injured and Heal them in Jesus Name

I love this country, so predictable. The result of investigation will be 'it was a gas explosion, our men are on the ground to find out what happened. We shall get to the bottom of this and if anyone is involved, we shall bring them to bear the full consequences of the law'
Case Closed till next explosion.

Can you explain the bad thing he has done to tell people to prepare themselves for eternity because death could meet them at any time.

I heard a bang in Ikeja yesterday and immediately suspected a gas explosion. But why always Nigeria na? How long will it take us to put safety measures in place like developed countries ?

In your childish attempt to sound intelligent,you just gave out how unintelligent you are.
The same Nigeria that imports almost 90% of it's cooking gas,more than half ironically from the same U.S you say have a safer cooking gas,different from the one we use?
Going by your fu llishness,U.S. sells to us a cooking gas different from the one they use,so as to depopulate us?

When comparing propane and butane, the most important differences come down to the boiling point of the gases. Propane has a boiling temperature of -42°C, whilst butane has a higher boiling point at -2°C. ... When stored as a liquid in a tank, propane also exerts a greater pressure than butane at the same temperature.

He extended his condolences, which is expected in situations like these. He is well under his rights, to talk about his religious beliefs; please allow him. I find his messages riveting, and from the interest he has appropriated on this post, I am not alone.

My deepest condolences to the families involved, a very sad news

I will miss you oremi atata. Rest in peace.

it will always be dumb to fools, guess you're one ain't surprised

It's a pity

Coolcalmcollect:
