I do ply Sango to UI road almost everyday. Not quite long ago, when this particular site was getting developed for a gas station, the residents rose up and challenged the government on how unsafe it is to site a gas station around residential buildings. They even went as far as making noise on radio stations but it all fell on deaf ears.

During the construction of the gas station, I normally sight minimum of three policemen stationed to prevent m protest and avoid break down of law and order. I felt like the government cheated the people living around this gas station by not listening to their cries. If the news is true, who will bear the brunt most, if not landlords around this place. What they feared most has finally come to pass.
