Today in rumuolumeni community of rivers state, at big tree junction, a popular junction known
around the town, a bus got burnt to ashes.
Following reports from the
representative of #http://www.circletalks.blogspot.com/
it was confirmed that the owner of the burnt bus was carrying
petroleums/fossils substances.
Due to over heat from the engine of
the bus the diesel fuel which was tied in nylon bags and stocked at
the back of the vehicle got leaked and as a reesult of that, the
heated engine got ignited and bust into flames.
Fortunately for the driver, he was
fast enough to make an escape through the door which was'nt locked
from the inside, residents of the area and business men and women
also got lucky especially a cooking gas dispensing shop which was
lucky to not have any gas left in its containers, otherwise with the
gas it would have been a different case altogether.
Although the fire service arrived
late, the people living around the area didnt sit back and watch or
run, the showed lots of courage and brought the flaming bus to a
cool.By the arrival of the fire service team, the youths got
infuriated as to what they are up to when knowing too well that the
fire is no more, through the intervention of the police and its D.O.P
which where there from the start of the fire as well the youth got
calmed and gave way to the fire service team but also used the
oppurtunity to appeal to the government to improve on handling issues
related to accidents and emergency, as it can cause loss of life and
properties.
