Residents of Akamkpa, Cross River State, were seen gathering fuel from a toppled tanker following an accident in the area, News360 Nigeria reports.

According to a Facebook post by popular journalists Agba Jalingo, the tanker which was transporting fuel, overturned on a major road, leading locals to rush to the scene to collect the spilling fuel.

He wrote:

“A tanker loaded with PMS had an accident this evening at Small Iwuru, Akamkpa LGA in Cross River State. Immediately after the bridge from Calabar.”

“See the number of people daring death and scooping fuel in the face of such massive danger.”

“I am also surprised to see the truck of the Dragon Squad of the Police parked closely and nothing was done to stop the scoopers from the imminent danger.”

“This is still ongoing.”

News360 Nigeria reports that a devastating petrol tanker explosion occurred in Majiya Town, Taura Local Government Area of Jigawa State last week and claimed the lives of no fewer than 90 people, with 50 others injured.

Such incidents pose significant risks as the collection of fuel from accidents like these can lead to explosions or fire outbreaks, putting lives and property in danger. Authorities have been called to the scene to secure the area and prevent any potential disasters.

Despite the dangers, fuel scarcity and economic hardship in the region often drive locals to engage in the dangerous practice of siphoning fuel from accident sites. Emergency services have warned the public against such actions, urging them to prioritize safety.

A liter is 1200, one 20ltr is 24k, stop playing, there's risk in everything, I just hope it isn't classified as stealing.

Safety is alien to Nigerian culture. One spark, they all roast. Should we also sympathize with these ones if fire engulfed all of them? sad

Life is action and consequence.

My people perish for lack of knowledge. It's quite unfortunate that Nigerians have become immune to certain dangers due to the present economic condition of the country. We have become daredevils in the face of impending doom. Scary. But no matter what, hardship should not make you lose your sense of reasoning. There is no medicine for death.

When a petrol tanker falls in your neighbourhood, make sure you gather your entire family and head towards it, to scoop fuel as a litre goes for N1.200, it is not stealing.
