Another Tanker Explodes in Jigawa, Quick Response Prevents Death
Another tanker explosion has hit Jigawa State, sparking fear among residents of Tsaida community in Dutse Local Government Area.
This incident follows closely on the heels of a devastating tanker explosion just weeks earlier in Majia town, Taura LGA, where over 150 lives were tragically lost.
Aliyu M. A., the spokesperson for the Federal Fire Service, shared details of the incident in a statement.
According to him, the service received an urgent call on the morning of November 12, 2024, from Zubairu Ahmad, the village head of Kuho, alerting them to the tanker accident at Tsaida, located near Kwanar Kalle along the Maiduri Road.
This area, with its busy roads, has seen increasing traffic from heavy-duty vehicles transporting fuel and other goods across the region, making such incidents a rising concern.
In response to the distress call, Federal Fire Service personnel, supported by security teams, immediately mobilized and rushed to the scene.
Their swift action helped to contain the blaze, preventing it from spreading further and causing additional damage.
The firefighters worked alongside police and local security forces, whose coordinated efforts were instrumental in bringing the situation under control.
Thanks to these combined efforts, no lives were lost in this incident, though one person sustained a minor injury.
Aliyu commended the prompt response and teamwork that helped avert a major tragedy, emphasizing the importance of quick action during emergencies.
