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,...


What happened? cry

if safety precautions are taken gas is safe, when someone who uses kero and fire wood suddenly upgrades to gas things like these happen.

gas is not meant for everyone especially village girls.

you have steady light... it's not like that in every other part of the country. most areas can only boast of power supply barely 6 times in a month.

God have mercy. All these occurrences would only add up to my phobia as far as domestic gas is concerned. I've never been convinced for once into subscribing for gas. A mere seeing the cylinder scares me off big time.

My shop was burnt down in the market because of gas explosion thus putting me in this economic misery.

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
If what relevance is that question to a dead woman? shocked

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.
so the fire she was using to cook could not trigger an explosion but its the phone that will trigger it. Try to reason for once

Interesting! Some of my neighbors has their cylinder right inside the kitchen where the gas cooker is. I have told them how dangerous it is, but they won't hear.

Show them this post.

I used to have mine in my kitchen too until I witnessed the death of people I knew from gas explosion. I had to advise myself.

People saying they can't use gas/people that gas scares yen yen yen
People have every reason to be afraid of using gas because it presents a clear and present danger..

And especially with children in the house nothing is guaranteed..

Good for you if you're okay with its inherent risks,but don't belittle the legitimate phobias of others concerning it.

After all,the woman must have been using it for years and look at how she ended up.. shocked

He meant dont on it and leave it without lighting the fire or else by the time somebody else tries to ignite it the fire will catch. shocked

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.

Lolsssssss@"IMPORTANTER"

I use gas and electricity. I use charcoal to grill. I use firewood for burn fire. I don't use kerosine now but I do when I must and if available.

So tell me, for someone that doesnt use gas cos it explodes, I hope you avoid kerosine too?
