in Afrika any big kirori is a lori
like any 14 seater is a Nissan
Daipers zote ni Pampers
Sanitary pads zote ni Always
powder soap zote ni Omo (juzi ungeskia @bigDog pale Naivas, "Omo ya Toss ya 5Kg iko pande gani" mwambie kazi ya kuenda super ni ya wife sio ya ndume. Ndume huonekana supermarket kama ananunua mzinga.)

Wacha kuniharibia jina! Nilikua nimeenda bench marking. Saa zingine hawa mifugo akina Shanize huleta exxgergarated bills. Sasa Njaanuary ikabidi confirmation. Nikatumwa hiyo kibarua na @Meria. I like to be a useful villager at the service of the kijiji boss.

MMNN was at the scene and has pictures to show, so why is @Aviator being so petty and combative without counter evidence?

Sijui if at this point any lives will be spared if it is determined that cylinders were involved.

Anyway, the fire looks like a thermos fire. Cylinders would be popping one by one.

from 0:19 its clear the crane operator lost control and it ended up being a disaster. @Meria i thought the highlighted parts ndio hutumika tu lift the tank .

This was a clumsy hasty rescue gone bad.

The crane was able to raise the thermos but the lack of balance made it swing about and scrape against the asphalt. It sounds like one of the nipples used to fill or evacuate the tank broke off, releasing that cloud of deadly gas. Just one spark was needed for disaster: a starting engine a hot exhaust, etc.
