This is sad in this hard and trying time.
May God replenish the pockets of those that has their property destroyed in this inferno.
More cautious needs to be in place due to the recent fire incidents.

I initially thought it was a multiple bomb explosion as far as Lambe. It was scary. May God help us.

Chai! This is happening in this period when times are hard; elevated blood pressure will land some people in the hospital.
Re: Tanker Explosion Rocks Iju Ishaga, Lagos by dealslip(f):
This often happens during heat waves that we are experiencing. Many tanker now have attached water sprinkler that sprinkles water on the tank at intervals to give some cooling aid to the tankers with flammable contents. In this season we all have to be very careful
