Please, who conducted the Forensic analysis that concluded that the Phone she was holding caused the explosion??...
*Spits*.. Educated illiterates everywhere..
.
First and Formost for an explosion to occur, the cylinder or hose or valve must have been leaking... and since the cooker was in use, the 3 things needed for combustion are now present, Heat(Fire), Oxidizing Agent(Air), Fuel(Gas)..
.
It has nothing to do with phone or no phone.. this is simple physics...
Even if the phone had the highest concentration Of Radio Waves, once there is a leak the fire burning on the cooker would have to ignite FIRST!.. before any radiowaves.
.
If ur cylinder and cooker are in good working conditions there shouldn't be any fear of combustion because the fire triangle would lack one vital component, Fuel to burn.
.
Its not that difficult really...
most Nigerians are fools fooling around now that why this. Country is in a mess educated illiterate I Hate Nigerians

How about the naked flame already burning on the gas burner and cooking the food,why doesnt that cause explosion? Explosion can only be caused when there is a spark after the room is filled with gas.

A phone can never cause explosion when there is already fire burning at the mouth of the burner. Pls let us learn to use our heads once in a while.
You Can't teach people hell bent on being ignorant..

Gas cylinder is meant to be outside not inside

u dont get my question, if telephone as source of ignition could make the whole thing explode.
The burner is on fire already, why is the flame not going into the cylinder?

he is not wrong. If there was an explosion, it was due to a leak not due to phone usage. People should learn to check their cylinders for leaks and also make sure hoses are in good condition before use.

Nigga pls shut up and learn.... Don't go around showing your ignorance..... This is proof

Using cell phone while gas is burning may not ignite fire but the static electricity can. ... Once these vapors are ignited, it can cause this ignition to travel where the gas is present in large amount. And, the very next minute it can cause a big boom around the region.....

Radioactivity. Many of the mricowaves being used have leaks and many fairly used ones being sold in the market are already faulty and the reason the whites disposed them off. For the microwave to work doesn't mean everything is fine. So operating one with this leak close to a cell phone is highly dangerous.

The burner is on fire already, why is the flame not going into the cylinder?

There's no way the flame can go into the cylinder, the gas is pressurized in the cylinder and the moment the cooker is switched on it forces its way out through the hose to the burner.
Have you done this before, spraying an insecticide and light up the fumes, the flames cant go into the container because the content is pressurized.

a petrol has alot of vapour coming out of it that's why you can siphon fuel using a pipe but you can't with kerosene... Almost the same thing with gas because it has stronger forces holding it hence it's been forced into a cylinder to stay put because it can move haphazardly if exposed to thin air hence causing explosion... A gas cannot and will not explode if it's within its confined space but a little leakage can make it go kaboom... Using your phone near a leaking gas or a petrol station especially when it's been dispensed can cause an explosion if there is static electricity between your hand and your phone

Very correct bro. I even watched a fire safety video where a man lit the match on the open valve atop the gas cylinder, it just kept burning from there and didn't go down all the way into the cylinder as many people here believe, he then placed a thick wet towel over the burning flame and it died out

That's not the issue. The argument is why would people attribute explosion to the phone when the gas burner is already ignited. Explosion is due to a leak not due to the presence of a phone.

You aren't a scientist, science is empirical and so son, you know little and lack the knowledge on issues like this. I'd advice you to pipe low when such technical issues are being discussed. If the gas cylinder is leaking, its a possibility for the statics created by the phone to cause an explosion.. same happens in petrol stations, even rubbing ur body on the car in a way while refuelling causes fire, if you doubt, why not give it a try expecially in this harmattan period and see how popular you'd become..Thanks

My question is.. who proved that the phone was the cause of the blaze?..
Who did the forensic inveatigation??..
is it cause her phone was found Next to her burned body??
Laughable.....
.
If a cylinder or hose is faulty and in use, the first thing that would ignite an inferno is the fire on the burners... not static electricity or radiowaves from a phone..
How hard is that to grasp??.
