A more horrific incident briefly related:
Quote:
Pipeline explosions
Soon after, in a situation akin to Armageddon, an oil pipeline punctured by vandals exploded north of the Abia state capital Umuahia, killing 125 villagers. Most of them were peasant villagers who attempted to scoop oil for sale in order to better their lives. About the same period, dozens of people were killed in a petroleum pipeline explosion in a village near Lagos. The explosion happened as thieves tried to siphon petrol from a pipeline belonging to state oil company, NNPC. If the flame was horrendous, the mangled and charred bodies of victims were more horrifying.
