Ibadan petrol tanker explosion

Road accident

The Ibadan petrol tanker explosion was a major accident on the road from Ibadan to Ifẹ in Nigeria on 5 November 2000. There was a long tailback and a petrol tanker was unable to brake in time and so rammed the queue, causing an explosion and fire which destroyed over 100 vehicles and killed many people. Hundreds of people were burnt and this placed a high load on the Oyo State's medical services. This was one of a series of road accidents with a high death toll in Nigeria and these have continued with further tanker explosions in 2018 and 2019.
