No fewer than 90 people were confirmed dead following a petrol tanker explosion in Majiya Town, Taura local government area of Jigawa State on Tuesday, News360 Nigeria gathered.

Mr Shi’isu Adam, the Police Spokesperson in Jigawa, confirmed this in an interview with NAN on Wednesday.

He also said that 50 other persons had been hospitalised for various degrees of injuries due to the explosion.

”At about 11:30pm on Tuesday in Majia Town, Taura local government area of Jigawa, the tanker driver lost control near Khadija University and exploded.

“The driver left Kano and was heading to Nguru in Yobe when the accident happened,” Adam said.

He said: ”we are worried that in spite of police warning people to stay clear from scenes of accidents involving fuel tankers, they still engage in such acts.

”People gathered around the accident scene, that is the reason for the mass casuality”.

The spokesperson said that a mass burial of the victims would hold by 9 a.m. on Wednesday.

He added that the injured were receiving medical attention at the Ringim General hospital.

The number of lives and properties lost under this calamitous Tinubu regime is unquantifiable, not even in a war time have we lost this number of lives.
