NNPC pipeline was vandalized on Saturday January 12th at Arepo in Ogun state, barely a month after it was fixed after it was vandalized in August 2012. The vandalism led to an explosion that killed several people.
Bodies of four of those people were found yesterday Sunday January 13th floating in the swamp around the explosion site in Arepo. The bodies had floated up from the water, while several bodies are suspected to be inside the swamp.
The explosion occurred according to an eye witness, Sunday Reuben (pictured above, who is now late) after two of the vandals reportedly engaged in a heated argument which led to one of them shooting into the air with his rifle. Bullets shot from the rifle hit the ruptured pipeline and led to the explosion. Several died, many arrested.

This is d level of poverty that as eaten deep to the people of this nation... I don't blame dem, most of all this plpp hve no option dan to engage in this kind of deadly act to make ends meet .... D nation which is totally corrupt and worst are making her plpp to drink frm dere own blood and eat their own flesh
Saddening graphic images here, how sad... People using their own hands to call death closer through vandalism, as much as I would want to blame these people I hold back my tongues of slur, its unemployment that's causing all this, the government should provide more for communities where the nation's gold is being gotten from. Its just like being hungry and seeing food being conveyed in your face on a daily basis without any coming to you
Chei!.. See how pple decide their own death!.. Chei chukwu o!.. Who will be blame for their death now?.. Bikonu umu nmadu let's put life 1st in all we do!..
You can see people, that we are very lazy people. We want quick money. We complain of govt failing us, must we get down to this after seeing it happen before? Tomorrow, they would still go and vandalize pipelines again. Sick society.
Idiot illitrate vandals. A bit late to learn that you never take a gun/open fire anywhere near flammable material. Stupid idiots, killing other people in their get rich quick oil theiving.
Some people never learn! This is definitely not the result of poverty but of greed and stubborness.

Linda! Trust Nigerians, They will never learn. Tomorrow some other people will do the same. I think that serve them right... Some Nigerians are like Animals. Nice Job Linda. When you go give me my New Year Gift Now?

This is a perfect example of God setting confusion in the mist of evil doers.

Looks like he was one of the vandals. may their souls rest in peace. No comment other than the consequences of such behavior is natural, blow up the pipe and it will blow you up.
Hopefully the real brains behind this idiocy are arrested and punished
Dunno weda to say may their souls RIP or suffer in stubbornness. No news anywayz cos some dudes will still go to vandalize tomorrow.
Ths pple just don't learn! Haba!
Can u just imagine stupidity!
what a loss...but come to think of it, politicians steal oil revenue to spend on whores..vanals steal oil to have dia daily bread, yet dey are the most critized!!!
God is watching
I'm amazed that the now deceased man pictured above was not hospitalised after attaining what pols like 2nd degree burns.
This is the result of poverty.
The real Willow!
Dis r the kinda news u hear from a failed state .. Poverty is d only tin dat will make young men 2 risk their lives like dis.. I won't blame em I blame a country wit abundant human and natural resources but totally lacks disciplined leaders who have a vision . If this is what it takes to escape poverty I'l rather do it and die than die poor
Lord have mercy. Nigeria! Wat a shame. See wat poverty caused by it's leaders is Resulting into. Caution has been thrown to d winds. D victims have lost all sense of reasoning. Pity.
I know of a girl that goes there to bunker oil i hope she's okay.
fly wey no dey hear word na inside cup of palmwine e go peme!
Wat was he thinking wen shooting in d air, it should ve been beta if he dies alone.may d souls of d victims rest in perfect peace .
What a shame!!!In my opinion there is no justification for for this ones did but after all said and done;BUT NA HUNGER DEY DRIVE THEM TO SUCH A DISPEAKABLE ACT,UNFORTUNATELY THE REST OF MY PPLE ARE SUFFERING AND SMILING,SHAME!SHAME!!SHAME!!!.
Anger causes a whole lot of things,God help ppl 2control their anger,life would be safer that way..Lord hv mercy am sure it was such a flimsy arguement that must hv cause ppl's life..may their souls rest in peace Amen...
kai! na wao! they don't hear word! do not vandalize pipelines. No!
terrible!
I am not one to be glad when people die like this, but this case is peculiar. These vandals were being greedy in the place, then they become even greedier in the process of committing an offense driven by greed. Imagine, they started arguing ,probably about who gets what..SMH!!! SERVES THEM RIGHT!!!
Sad news...really sad
C wat greed can cause. I wonder wen pple will stop all these evil acts. Now their stupidity has cost odas' their lives,families,luved ones! God help us. May d souls of d innocent departed rest in perfect peace. Amen
When would people learn to stop vandalizing pipelines. I blame the Government as well for not creating adequate jobs for the masses which results in vandalism as a means of survival.
Hmmmmm,End of the road.
I can't help but wonder if the problem in Nigeria is caused by poverty or illiteracy.
Lord pls forgive Your people, may their souls RIP.

It's a Christian blog, we need to put God first always. Nobody loves you like Jesus.
Oh God!death death death death just everywhere!
Y would dis happen,dis is devils handwork,btw the two people,dis has caused innocents deaths.may their soul rest in peace
The fly that will not heed advice,will follow the Dead body to the grave!
How many times will these pple be warned to stay away from pipeline vandalisation?
isi kote Ebu, Okpaa ya! D evil that men do ...! What more shall I say? What would an innocent man with no intention of bunckering be doing near a vandalized pipeline?
ILLITERATE FOOLS DON'T THEY KNOW THAT SHOOTING IN THE AIR OR ANY FLAME FROM ANYTHING WOULD CAUSE AN EXPLOSION. GOOD HAVE MERCY ON MY PEOPLE FOR IGNORANCE IS A DISEASE.
Nigeria should be listed amongst the dumbest nations, who fire a gun next to Gas ? jesus christ even a retard knew better than that... there should be a law that no one can drop out of school.
Nigerians will blame government for everything. Even bare-faced criminality like this is still blamed on government. At the end of the day, we all claim to be Christians and Muslims. Does the Bible or Koran says one is free to steal because he is poor or has no job? People commit huge sums of money to fund a robbery operation and justify it with unemployment. Why not use the money that is spent on vehicles, guns, dynamites, etc to start some good business? What happens after they succeed in an operation? Do they invest the money legally or wisely? The answer is no. They lavish it about and go back to rob again and again until they are caught then they and their sympathizers blame it on government. It is so sad but the more we intellectuals give excuses for criminals and criminality, the more we will have criminal acts.
Can't they use the money they used to buy guns and equipments for vandalization to start something lucrative? Its laziness and greed not poverty.
Dnt be deceived..d soul dt sinneth shall die. I wil never blame dis on d govt aftral many ppl are stil in dis country makings ends mit in a righteous way. Dis same ppl killed nnpc oficials trying to fix d damaged pipe somtimes ago bt ppl didnt see anytin bad in dt. May der soul rot in hell
Ignorant motherfuckers, living ignorantly and dying in ignorance..........who carries a gun to a pipeline heist?
I just hope it was these guys that killed those nnpc staff if so no sympathy they got what they deserve
really sad development.
i beg. May d souls of those vandals never rest in peace
Excuse meee? Did u say poverty? Are they the only poor people? Laziness is the word not Poverty. Should we all go and vandalize pipelines bcos we are poor?
I agree, incredibly stupid I must say.
May their soul rest in peace
U re very correct, true talk
Thieves should rest in peace? You re the type of people that will say RIP when boko haram members die! If u don't like the story, na by force to read !
