Similar situations involving fuel

Similar situations have occurred in the past, mostly involving fuel tankers. For example, in Bimbila in the northern region, residents rushed to a tanker transporting fuel following a 2022 crash.

Residents from the area came to the scene carrying containers to collect some petrol gushing from the tanker.

Although the police attempted to evict the citizens, it proved impossible until the fire department showed up and began saturating the area with water.

Also, in 2022, a fuel tanker accident in Kaase in the Ashanti Region offered locals a difficult but risk-free option to make quick money.

The locals flocked to the tanker to siphon the spilt fuel into buckets and jugs for sale, disregarding the possibility of an explosion.
