According to a report by Lagos state police command II, Instablog and Sahara Reporters, there has been another gas explosion in Lagos.

The Explosion has hit another gas station in Lagos.

According to National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) spokesman, Ibrahim Farinloye, the explosion occurred around 6.am at Best Roof Gas Station located at Unity Bus Stop, Fatade area of Baruwa in Alimoso Local Government Area of the State.

The fire is still raging in the area while officials of the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA), NEMA, Police officers and Fire Service are now on the ground to control the situation.

This is the second gas explosion that has happened in Lagos in less than three weeks.

It is still unclear how many people have lost their lives but we can confirm that a number of individuals were injured and have been rushed to the hospital for medical attention.

The impact of the explosion resulted to widespread of fire has also destroyed properties too.

It's sad that we keep writing about reoccurring preventable tragedies.

Nigeria can be so depressing, No matter what you do, someone or something just wants to kill you.

There is a billion ways to die in this jungle.

Granting approval for gas plants within residential areas is absolutely wrong. @followlasg and the DPR should re-examine this.

I think we have to use every medium to help push narratives around the need for safety consciousness.

It's so unfortunate that we will forget about this by tomorrow, as usual, nobody will care about the cause, how to avoid it, and most importantly the number of lives and properties lost.

This unfortunate event and others in the recent past in which we have lost valuable lives underscores our need for true fiscal restructuring. We commiserate with all families affected.
