Useless country...after the last incident, nothing of such should happen again; but this is Nigeria. The only thing they can seriously curb is an epidemic such as ebola cos they know it would have wiped everyone out. |

Diesel is not volatile like petrol, so no cause for alarm. |

People who know their hydrocarbons will know that diesel is not easily ignitable and is safe to scoop. |

Akinsoladwayne: It shows you don't know Otedola bridge, once any vehicle falls there, people try as much as possible to avoid that link. On a good day, the bridge is very dangerous in itself due to the sudden steep slope and numerous heavy duty vehicles that have to ply through it with most of them having brake failure and using buses and other vehicles as emergency "brakes" to stop their trailers. I tell you, with this news some people will not near there for the next two days |

Emmy9ite02: Yes. It's the same location. The issue with the location is the the steep slope that made it difficult for trucks to climb and traffic jam speed. Once there's traffic and trucks can't accelerate to climb, there's the tendency for the truck to reverse under the weight if! load. Often, you see Thier "Moto boy" hastily alight trying to wedge the tyre from rolling back under such circumstances, once the wedge is unable to stop reverse under the influence of weight, the probability of a fall will almost be 100%. Lessons: cars should never move close to loaded truck when climbing a hill, Never allow the danfo drivers to block that Berger bus stop. That is the major cause of traffic and live has been lost with million of Naira. The construction of Kara Bridge most likely to have induced the traffic that lead to the fall of yesterday. |
