Ghana Gas Station Disaster

Ghana Gas Station Disaster

At least five people have died and dozens injured in an explosion at a gas filling station in Ghana's capital, Accra, according to local media. The explosion had been caused by "irresponsible human error", the National Petroleum Authority, (NPA) said. The NPA said two bolts which should have "tightened the lid" of the gas tanker were missing, Joy News reports. Witnesses said they heard a loud bang and saw flames billowing into the sky.

Injured persons were reported to have suffered severe burns and have been sent to the hospital. Several images of charred bodies from the explosion have been shared on social media. The NPA, which had inspected the site, blamed the fire on a "fully loaded" gas tanker that was discharging Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG).

NPA head Moses Asaga told local radio station Joy FM that "The pressure built up and because the lid was not tight, the pressure was able to force the lid open."

"It came out like a missile... and that is why it spewed out 200 meters into the Labadi Trade Fair site and caused the fire.

Local media reports say the explosion occurred at 18:00 local time on Thursday and it took fire officers several hours to bring the fire under control. There had also been a black-out in the area - where a national exhibition centre and a university are located - as some electricity cables reportedly, caught fire. The tragedy has raised renewed concerns over the location of fuel stations, many of which can be found close to residential areas.

Re: Ghana Gas Station Disaster

Helpful bunch of fuckers there. The paramedics probably jumped out of the ambulance and started filming on their phones. Burned up people were like "fuck it, I'll just walk to the goddamn hospital."

Re: Ghana Gas Station Disaster

Seems like they were more into yelling and blaming people for the disaster than helping the victims walking around like zombies.
