PPMC was notified but they paid deaf ears. The cause of the fire has not been known. What we do know and what everyone can see is that aquatic lives farmlands, herbs and economic trees, vegetables, plantain, oranges and etc. Our means of livelihood is lost. We are mainly fishermen and farmers.
All hope is gone.
Until the time of this report, large volumes of diesel could still be seen on the affected rivers and streams. The implication is that there is likely to be another fire out-break. The destroyed bridge is yet to receive any attention. The charred remains of the truck remains as a totem to the tragedy. The traffic situation is chaotic as motorists now use the unfinished section of the Warri-Sapele highway here.
