No fewer than 15 (driver of the truck, his assistant, several passengers in two commercial buses, by-standers, two Hausa suya vendors) people were burnt to death, also burnt were several building, 8 vehicles and about 200 shops including a commercial bank when a tanker laden with petrol fell and went up in flames Tuesday night. The inferno lasted till yesterday morning, at the Berger Suya junction, Apapa, Lagos.
An eye witness said that as the tanker was coming from Kirikiri, it lost control as a result of brake failure and when it could not negotiate bent it fell and caught fire. This is a not good for new year.
