A petrol tanker fire which occurred on Saturday night at Danmagaji area of Zaria in Kaduna State consumed one person and burnt down a police station and eleven vehicles.
According to the Kaduna State Police Command, the tragedy occurred when the driver of the truck suddenly lost control while trying to evade a pothole.
The State Commissioner of Police , Mr Agyole Abeh confirmed the incident.
“The incident was quite unfortunate but we have to give glory to God because the level of lives involved is what we should appreciate God for.
“The inferno would have consumed a lot of lives, most especially as Danmagaji usually has heavy traffic, and this police station is a place where people always patronise.
“Today, we would have been telling a different story.
“However everything in the station have been completely burnt down, as you can see the structure, nothing is left apart from the wall,” he said.
