Since the sale of petrol inside jerrycans and gallons was banned because of the activities of fuel attendants who prefer selling to black market sellers rather than selling to non-commercial consumers, Nigerians have found innovative ways to buy in small quantities. This filling station located after Berger, Lagos, was pictured selling directly into buckets. Isn't this terribly dangerous?

if this is true then it could have consequences, but I doubt they care, what does the law of physics says, well, let's say it's in the afternoon, petroleum is very volatile, the gaseous form of petroleum of about 17 percent concentration will lead to explosion, so what that person doesn't know is that, the petrol can evaporate and surround occupy a large area, now what is the remaining ingredient, well, just a spark, and there would be an explosion.
Then I will cry a little and bid them farewell.

Suffering and smiling fela has already said it, that is what we believe here in our country, Shea the government told us that we are going to experience what they called CHANGE and surely that is what we are experiencing.

This is not new nah,so many has happened b4 this one,I remember in 1998 when I was travelling,the driver needed to fuel,there was queue at the filling station,so he approached the manager who asked him if he has jerry can,he replied no,so we looked for bucket from all this tanker drivers to buy and fuelled the tank.
