Tragedy This life is vanity upon vanity, we come to this life, struggle and hustle, flex , suffer, wnd enjoy, just to die later. This life is just a passing phase, all must pass, no need to suffer, struggle or take life too hard on yourself, bcuz we all gonno die. The after life is what matters, man is already cursed to die, thats the bitter truth, believe it or not. Even the most righteous person will still die, its a curse from the beginning,. The only guarantee to eternal life is with christ. Think about this. |

Chai! What a tragedy. Is it that they don't use anything to tie the container with the trailer that makes them to be fallen almost every day.? RIP |

Zionmdde:They are after flashy cars that can sort them Have you even seen VIO inspect old and worn out vehicles or even flag them?? It is only the neat ones because they perceive such people will easily sort them in case they find them wanting. |

That road is terrible. Though remedial work is ongoing |

![]() What a tragedy It's time the government should take actions on this drivers. Some of them are reckless, I know bad roads could cause this but drivers recklessness added to it. Equipment like this should be well tighten on vehicles that converged them |

The black man. Empty, banal and base. Cutting every corner just to make an extra buck. Who puts a loaded container on a flatbed without securing it? Incidents like this keep happening all the time and no one is ever held responsible. |

Think it's time people start stoping deadly trucks at every junction and call the police to arrest the driver. Citizens must defend their community since the government agencies are sleeping on their duties. |

Lyricalz01:There is NO after life. Stop consoling yourself. Live your life NOW if you have the means to. Do Cats, Dogs and Rats have an after life too? If I may ask. |

This will still happen subsequently. Honestly, it's piteous and sad seeing this kind of news. What exactly is the govt doing about this? I'm often scared seeing this Truck passing. |

if this happened in Lagos, BAT, Yorubas will be blamed |

May God in his infinite mercy forgive them their sins and grant their soul eternal Rest,Amen 🙏 This is very shocking, It was so drastic that it changed the weather and very heavy and quick rainfall followed immediately. Nawa oo |

Anambra has far better quality of roads than Enugu state. Also Enugu that doesn’t have water christejames: |

It's high time the government steps up to address this. This is the 21st century for crying out loud |

We have a very poor mentally of doing things the proper way in Naija. All the containers I see on our roads on flat bed vehicles are not secured. We see this as normal and it is okay. In all my travels outside the country I have never seen a container that is not well secured and tied down on the flat bed truck. It is really sad the way we behave as a people. |
| Re: Tragedy As Container Falls In Onitsha, Kills 2 by fineboynl(m): 11:50am On Oct 18, 2025 |
I don’t see any reason why fulll loaded containers should be moving up and down. They should build more mini sea ports that can move the containers |

Jesus is the hope of eternal life and we need him to guarantee this. The government, however, needs to fix our roads and regulate truck driving. This is not what Jesus would do for us. It is what we and the government must be held accountable to do. |

But why would you move closely with these trucks instead of overtaking them with speed If you see them trying to negotiate a bad spot on the road, no go near na. |
