See as area boys scoop fuel as trailer carrying load fall at Ojota Lagos

Area boys were captured scooping diesel from a trailer carrying a full load of sacked material that fell down around a popular place called Ojota in Lagos State.

That is the same Ojota in Lagos close to the Chinese building where Yoruba Nation agitators were protesting on Saturday.

As the trailer fell down, the fuel tanker that is full of diesel burst and fuel gushed ou; the area boys around seize the opportunity to scoop the diesel into various kegs and plastic cans.

Though policemen were seen manning the trailer from been looted by the hoodlums, this does not stop the people from scooping the fuel on the floor.

Passersby are of the opinion that firefighters should be around the location to prevent any explosion that might occur due to the pouring of the fuel.

However, some people are of the opinion that diesel is not a highly inflammable substance and thus doesn’t explode like petrol, so there shouldn’t be much worried by the people.
