No fewer than 64 people sustained various degrees of injuries after a fuel tanker exploded in Kano on Saturday evening.

Among the casualties were personnel of the Kano State Fire Service who had responded to the distress call.

Believe me, 98% of them were onlookers. Forgetting the fact that fuel can explode and cause harm to someone who is even 30 meters away.
