KINSHASA, Congo (AP) — At least 50 dead, 100 burned as Congo tanker truck burns; villagers had rushed to collect leaking fuel.
mbisha loading,
details are sketchy right now sijui ni Provence gani,
muarabu ameniita saa hii niingie usiku sacco
Sad but not too sad because ni mwiba wa kujidunga
Africans die while trying to make wealth while Wazungu hukufa looking to get high from drugs. Nobody is perfect they told me and I believe it. Meh.
at least 50 people were killed on Saturday and more than 100 had second-degree burns when a tanker truck in Democratic Republic of Congo collided with a bus and, as villagers rushed to collect the leaking fuel, caught fire, witnesses and officials said.
“We deplore the deaths,” the interim governor of Kongo-Central province, Atu Matubuana, told The Associated Press. Officials were preparing to identify the charred bodies and bury them, Matubuana said.
The accident occurred in the village of Mbuba, not far from Kisantu city and about 200km southwest of the capital, Kinshasa.
Kisantu is on the main highway between the capital and the country’s Matadi seaport.
Health officials have been instructed to prepare local hospitals to “do everything necessary” to treat all of the victims, the interim governor said.
In 2010, more than 200 people were killed when a tanker truck overturned and burned in DRC’s South Kivu province. Many of the victims had been trying to collect the leaking fuel when it caught fire.

The accident occurred in the village of Mbuba, not far from Kisantu city and about 200 kilometers (124 miles) southwest of the capital, Kinshasa. Kisantu is on the main highway between the capital and the country’s Matadi seaport.
Photos posted online by a local journalist show some of the injured, their skin raw from burns, piled into the back of a pickup truck and squeezed between people on a motorbike.
Health officials have been instructed to prepare local hospitals to “do everything necessary” to treat all of the victims, the interim governor said.
The U.N. peacekeeping mission in Congo said it had offered the government assistance for the injured, with nine ambulances en route to Kisantu to help with medical evacuations.
In 2010, more than 200 people were killed when a tanker truck overturned and burned in Congo’s South Kivu province. Many of the victims had been trying to collect the leaking fuel when it caught fire.

Pole to those ppl
Umefuka boarders . Take care mkubwa na ukipata dhahabu vuka nayo , hustler alitumia helicopter akachota 14B huko !
Low IQs are a curse to this continent.
hiyo ya italy ni wa-africa walikuwa wanapiga video pia?
I tend to confuse if it was greed or hunger that led them to the thermos
Meria Mata, there’s an old photo of burnt bodies that always circulates in social media, is it NOT from Congo, and if yes why does the black man never learn!!
…sh!tty African thinkings.
Poverty na ujinga is a bad cocktail. May the departed souls Rest in Peace.
Africans rush to the scene of askident with dem jerricans. IQ under 70. The video guy has high IQ and took the video from a safe distance, that’s why he survived
Did 50 Italians lose their lives?
