Veteran comedian, Ali Baba has penned down a heart wrenching note in reaction to the tanker fire at Lagos Ibadan express which claimed many lives.
He wrote:
“In organized societies, where traffic is a major issue, tankers and
heavy duty vehicles move at night or at specified times. In developed
climes, MOT agencies… are as serious as the police force. In some other
climes, that have deep shores like we do, only one port can not be used
for discharge of staples like fuel, and even then, fuel and
transportation of inflammable contents are done in controlled methods.
We are a Lawless country
If government tries to organize these same tankers now, they will go
on strike, shut down the economy and day to day running, and we will let
them continue. Same thing with teachers… try to get them to go get
retrained and be better qualified to teach, they will strike and we are
back to status quo.
We do not punish people who even chop monies meant for projects. Projects that have been captured in the budget and monies released. The same people who chop the monies will now be in the ruling party and to prosecute them becomes a No No. And as nothing is done to them another person will do it. Just imagine.
Nigerians died today because of avoidable precautions and failure to
create policies and laws that have consequences that could have detered
that tanker from being on that road. But no. Law makers dont care. The
Executives no send and the JUDICIARY is not jailing them. Bet me, more
tankers will fall. Nothing will be done. Nothing”
