Tanker Explosion Along Benin-ore Expressway by topemirates(op): 11:41am On May 12, 2016
This just happened along the Benin-Ore expressway, cause unknown yet but I can see a tanker trying to probably cross the road. This has led to total restriction of movements from both sides of the road. May God help us!!!

Pictures taken about 500/600M from the scene.

Re: Tanker Explosion Along Benin-ore Expressway by whirlwind7(m): 12:35pm On May 12, 2016
This country sef... *sighs*

Everything seem to be going up in flames. Send a fuel laden tanker to drive from point A to B along a very smooth road as depicted in the pictures, and it will just go up in flames.

Abeg, who we offend sef? The almost impossible/unimaginable keeps happening here!

Re: Tanker Explosion Along Benin-ore Expressway by hemartins(m): 12:37pm On May 12, 2016
I passed that same road yesterday.
It was a fallen gas tanker. Another gas tanker came along to transfer the gas into the new tank. The fire service were standing by and vehicles were diverted to take the one way.
Never knew it would result to an explosion.

May God save us all.
Amen.

Re: Tanker Explosion Along Benin-ore Expressway by Akposkool(m): 12:37pm On May 12, 2016
Jesus this is like action film.
Tanker drivers are always reckless. They drink a lot and when they see a car in front, they think it's an ant.
It's high time we shift these trucks off the road and use railway as a means of transporting goods.
God help those involved in this accident
