This is really bad, in developed countries, petroleum products are xported via rail, and not by vehicles, to avoid issues as this.

To enter Naija na man biggest fear now...

No be lie o.

More than 200 students and Teachers at a federal Government College in Kebbi were kidnapped this week and the Police man on duty was killed. If FGC students who come from all over Nigeria can be kidnapped en masse then how safe are Non FG owned schools

The Governor of Niger state said this week that members of his own Government are implicated in the bandits attack in his state. Now this is deep as if you extrapolate this then Boko haram probably have informants who are military officers and that hotel where you stay when you visit Nigeria may well have informants who notify armed robbers say food don land.

Only the Almighty can help us all and I hope he himself is not tired of the many problems in Nigeria.

In civilised countries, Petrol laden tankers do not move around during the day and these are tankers that are well maintained talk less of the rickety ill maintained tankers we have in Nigeria.

Nothing new here the tanker or petrol station would burn to the ground fire service would runout of water cause there is no active fire hydrants in Lagos the so called developed part of Nigeria. after all these no investigation or safety parameters would be put in place by the government to avert such future disaster and its back to business as usual in being a shithole country with no moral or ethics for good governance.

Buhari encourage all these problems.

How?

Look at the first names and last names of his service chiefs
Look at all the judges he nominated and appointed.
Take a look at all his ministers.


If you don't see anything wrong in how Buhari ran Nigeria.... Then

Something is fundamentally wrong with you and

the truth is that......

But what is a petrol tanker doing in a residencial area in the 1st place? You'd never see that in civilized countries where such rules are observed.


How do petrol stations in residential areas get petrol?

Lagos actually has fire hydrants installed on public roads. It is about the only state in Nigeria with this. Secondly, emergency services got thee in good time. Lagos is far ahead of other states in that aspect. If you want to criticise, do so objectively.

How many countries have you been to that tankers don't move during the day? Sit down and be talking nonsense since you're not exposed.
