We grew up criticising nne for always using firewood and kerosene stoves (sparingly) to cook.. Esp after we visit classmates and family friends homes and see their 'sweet smelling' gascookers. To the extent that when Paterson zochonis,a Greek company that my dad distributes for gives us yearly gifts,nne keeps other electronics but auctions off the gascookers among them..


Fastfoward years later,...am married with kids...guess what? We don't use gascookers in the house,...not after what I experienced sometime in 2003,...

Why dont you stop driving because people have car accidents?

People need to be careful with gas.. It should be outside the house not inside.. You think this thing won't happen until it happen

The cylinder you mean?

Most times it's gas leakage or when exposed to the atmosphere and then there is a source to ignite i.e phone call or any kind of spark from naked wire or iron hitting iron.

Phone calls are not a source of ignition...

My mother refused to use gas all. Through her life, especially when she saw what happened to a sales boy at the house we stayed in Lagos decades ago.

But na Gas I dey use now sha.

Once I smell anything, I don go check, most times it's always from my neighbours. I was the same person that saved their house from getting burned while they left their gas on and went to church on a Sunday like this... My nose is too sensitive and alert

There is no empirical scientific evidence that cell phones cause gas explosions. It's only in Nigeria we hear this kind of stuff.

I have read through several comments here with some advising against using gas cookers as if kerosene stoves do not explode as well.

The first comment should have clearly stated this warning and I think this should also be imprinted on every gas cooker and canister:

DO NOT PLACE YOUR GAS CAN INSIDE THE HOUSE.

It's like keeping a live bomb inside your living space. Avoid camp gas as much as you can as well.

Secondly,

ALWAYS AERATE YOUR KITCHEN WHENEVER YOU SUSPECT GAS LEAKAGE

No. 2 is important but No. 1 is importanter.

I hope this message saves a life.

Chai! As sweet and fast gas is. The explosion is just scary. Most explosion are caused mostly by human carelessness acts. I have cautioned a lady times without numbers that's fond of taking her phone while on call to the kitchen while the gas cooker is on.
phone calls DON'T cause gas explosion!

The question is did the gas explode on its own?! I guess the answer we all know is NO there must have been a source of ignition

This attitude of waiting for something to happen before action is taken is killing this country. everybody seems not to bother until it happens to one big man's children that's when action will be taking.......i spit for this country.
