For once, quick response of the Federal fire service, commendable...

That fire can't be stopped. Best to let it burn out.

I knew those fire service men were just wasting their time pouring water. Anyway this is a good research work to find the appropriate chemical mixture that can manipulate the octane number and quench the fire.
But could be the possible cause of the fire need some enlightenment.

Thank God firefighter have water this time around

If you watch the video, you'll notice that there are fire hydrants around.

Secondly, you'll notice that the firefighters are wetting the area around the tank in order to prevent the fire from spreading while the fire in the tank burns out.

Try this, set your house on fire, call them and see if you will still commend them.

Is dat water touching the fire at all?

I doubt, as of 7pm the fire was still burning.

fineboynl:
tinubu need to plead to Nigerians for lekki massacre. just when the gods and God abandoned you.

Did Tinubu kill anyone at Lekki? Was there any massacre? Have you been to the toll gate to check yourself? What is wrong with you people fighting so hard to maintain a lie? Do you know that if Oando is not quick and proactive, many lives will be lost from this fire? That we feel that Tinubu is not an honorable or honest person does not mean we accuse him of what did not take place.

Hmmm volume of fuel in the tank farm verse volume of water in the fire service truck can someone explain to me the possibility of quenching the fire.

The firetrucks are already connected to the hydrant lines for steady water supply.

Here's what's happening.

There is only one tank burning, as you can see in the pictures below. The firefighters are concentrating on wetting the environment around the tank to ensure that the fire does not spread. They have succeeded in doing that (as you can also see from the pictures).

They are going to let the fire in the tank to burn itself out while ensuring that the fire does not spread.


There are fire hydrants in the area and the appliances on the ground are connected to the hydrants.
