Otedola bridge tanker explosion death toll rises to 12
I'm so sorry to hear that. The tanker explosion on Otedola Bridge in Lagos, Nigeria has resulted in a devastating loss of life. The death toll has risen to 12, and I can only imagine the grief and trauma that the families of the victims are experiencing.
The incident occurred on June 28, 2022, when a tanker carrying petroleum products collided with another vehicle and burst into flames, causing widespread destruction and loss of life. The explosion was so intense that it engulfed nearby vehicles and buildings, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.
The Lagos State Government has promised to investigate the incident and provide support to the affected families. The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) has also promised to provide assistance to the victims.
As the investigation continues, I hope that the authorities will be able to identify the cause of the explosion and take steps to prevent such tragedies from occurring in the future. My thoughts are with the families of the victims and the people of Lagos who have been affected by this devastating incident.
