Welder Killed As Fuel Tanker Explodes At A Mechanic Workshop In Anambra (Graphic)

A tanker explosion has claimed the life of a welder at a mechanic workshop in Oyi Local Government Area of Anambra State, IgbereTV reports.

Spokesperson of the State Police Command, SP Haruna Mohammed, who confirmed the incident said the explosion occurred on Saturday, November 28, about 2:30pm, at the mechanic workshop located along new road toll gate in Ogbunike.

"The incident took place when a welder named Richard 'm' surname yet unknown was on top of an empty Fuel Mack Truck with REG number XA-740-CAL trying to weld the upper compartment. All of a sudden the tanker exploded and threw the welder two hundred metres away from the truck leaving him unconscious," he said.

The scene was visited by Police operatives attached to Ogbunike Division and the victim was rushed to Iyienu Hospital for treatment where he was confirmed dead by a doctor.

The corpse has since been deposited at the hospital mortuary while investigation is ongoing to ascertain circumstances surrounding the incident.

No matter how empty a functional petrol tanker is, small fuel go still remain inside the tank. Either in form of liquid or gas

RIP to the welder. He died while legally searching for the upkeep of his family.

Btw, I'm just imagining the comments that would have started emanating from miscreants if this were to happen in the North.

Things like, Abokki will always be Abboki, and some funny foolish comments.

You're truly a disgusting creature. Every single thing is an opportunity to throw lame tribal jabs. Get a life already.

I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong. I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of uncertainty about different things, but I am not absolutely sure of anything and there are many things I don't know anything about, such as whether it means anything to ask why we're here. I don't have to know an answer. I don't feel frightened not knowing things, by being lost in a mysterious universe without any purpose, which is the way it really is as far as I can tell.
RiP to the death. The kind of news that comes from Anambra these days are scary.

i once saw a welder in ondo state doing this same thing,these welders don't know that the little centilitres of fuel in the tank with temperature has created a slight gaseous pressure inbuild the tank,any incredible increase in kinetics might be disastrous depending on the fuel volume and pressurd build.

Sad but this avoidable death if normal process for welding gas or diesel tank had been followed.

We should all learn to follow all standard HSE processes.
