Well deserved death. Next one please, all these people who will vote wrongly and hope for free fuel from fallen tankers, continue.
If the Quote is verified true, then I share your sentiment.


Seems some persons never learn


No wonder they vote in id!!ots every election year, and start whaling thereafter. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Yep.

People still scooping fuel.

Instead of running away screaming.

Don't they know by now that scooping petrol from crashed tankers is literally the WORST idea?

Den use poverty do us for Naija?
This is beyond poverty.

Seems like id!ocy with a touch of a curse.

People de die for this country sha.

Loaded tankers should never move in the day.

Next time, at least try to read, nit just the headlines, before you rush to comment, so you keep disgracing your ancestors

Someone should remind me the date this kind of tragic event happened elsewhere in the North and people still had the mind to go scoop oil from an overturned tanker again?
Will Nigerians ever learn like this?

Anyone caught scooping oil henceforth should be sent straight to jail to at least 10 years without options of fine or pardon.

I passed there today when it happened. It really created massive hold up. I saw the people it burnt, they were scooping for fuel. It was really bad.

I initially thought so too but soon realised that those who were just passers-by where caught in the explosion I.e the pregnant woman and some children and so my others who had nothing to do with the activities of the individuals where attempting to siphon the fuel.

What has no one been sanctioned for all these tanker explosions in Nigeria...who approves the Tanker construction certificate and lifting certificates of all these petroleum tankers in NUPRC.

Roadside welders just weld plates together to form tank and call it petrol tanker. Any welder constructing Petroleum tanker is supposed to be approved and monitored all through construction stages.

When I see this type of comment I just wonder if Tinubu has not jinxed you people.

Who told you it's about vote?

It is so sad that Nigeria youths are suffering from delusion.

2027 is around the corner and rather than youths coming out to clamour for a credible electoral bill or even asked for option A4 as the only option of voting so that the votes of the people will count we are here blaming people for voting wrongly when we all know that Tinubu hijacked the mandate which was made easy cos of the shady electoral process we have

Hmmm .... too many people believe petrol be kerosene. Generator to siphon petrol.... recipe for disaster. Can imagine the wise one saying " it's ok ....safe .....as long as petrol doesn't get on it" ... not knowing the vapour is more than enough to start an inferno.

What exactly were they doing in the vicinity of a fallen petrol tanker,with fuel gushing all over the place?

That tanker did not explode immediately,why were people milling around it!
