Thats part of the problem with Nigerians we argue 2 much on the irrelevant rather than taking collective action wasting precious time even here on NL... A tanker spilled its contents and ure rite next to it arguing if its petrol or diesel Thats partly the reason I don't engage in all these major idle online arguments dat are leading no where. 2 Likes |

TrumpedL: It wasn't stationary. It was rolling backwards but you're quite right that the dashboard video does not corroborate this account of the incident. Another thing is that if he heard the explosion that close, he wouldn't be battling with burns alone. Again, I wonder if he is the same person in the 2 pictures. Leave them jare. Maybe he wants the free honey and fresh fruits that someone was offering to the victims of the mishap. 1 Like |

You will never understand the scene if you were not there. Let's just pray that evil should not come near us.. It's better imagine watching it on internet. It takes the grace of God to escape such. I am still battling with flashbacks, thanking God for the escape, praying quick recovery for the injured people and may the soul of the departed rest in peace. 1 Like |

Dicksonpal: During Buharis first term, the coup had soldiers all over Ibadan. There’s curfew and we looked up to see an army tank coming. Boy even half drunk I ran the fastest I could. This driver was simply trying to save his bus. Everyone should have shut off their engines and ran. Probably wouldn’t have been a fire. |

ayotoyin: All these pray pray stuff is the very reason why these things will keep happening. Praying and God won’t fix a thing and didn’t save anyone. The survivors were simply lucky. How many church vans have crashed? |

TrumpedL: Try watching again, you will observe that the break of the tanker probably failed while ascending the slope of the road and no engine power to keep it in motion up the slope, hence the tanker sliding backwards, that's why those two guys were trying to insert wooden wedge behind the tyres albeit unsuccessfully, this must have eventually caused the tanker to fall and spill it's content being PMS Watch again and observe the above 1 Like |

BloggersNG: The video online about the incident doesn't show the truck or driver as over speeding . The truck lost Air and could not longer climb into the bride. It sktatrted backward and ended up hitting the median .... The one thing in know is that the driver of the truck is not too good with controlling a truck on reverse hence the incident ...a Good driver l |

Trailers have load capacity base on tonnage and the torque power of the engine, but Naija no get time to dey check all that. No sensible city plan with barricades for trucks on some roads and height/load limitations. Look around your neighborhood and do a video of looming dangers and let’s share the videos on social media to bring the attention of the authority to them and make them understand any lives lost after the video will get a 100m Naira compensation to be paid to their next of kins. Imagine this happening on 3rd mainland bridge by 5:30pm, by now we would still be in the ocean looking for survivals who jumped in out of fear and commotion. Yes the government can be sued. 2 Likes |
