Tragic. A terrible way to die. RIP to those dead and a speedy recovery to those injured. I just cannot imagine the suffering they are enduring.

These Tankers are very dangerous

Death toll’s been raised to 300 last time I checked. Including a school bus packed with kids.

The number did rise yh. This is Nigeria we’re talking about.

You can’t rationalise things like that in a country as unpredictable and chaotic as Nigeria. Not being funny.

Confirmed. In reality there’s scores yet to be identified and anyone who’s got any ties to Nigeria’s aware of that.

There’s a difference between what the media shows and what the situation is in reality for people who actually know about Nigeria.

Yup.

By the way - all that’s down there for people who want to know a bit more about the accident beyond what the BBC’s showing.
