  13. I was in shock yesterday, that's why I couldn't send d gist stella. That accident happened right in front of my elder sister's house. She has three children under 8years. She went to her seamstress's place and locked them in, as God will have it d seamstress wasn't in d shop so she went back home. She decided to feed her chickens cos she runs a poultry. She just came outside and d next thing she heard was d crashing sound. D tanker driver was competing with another tanker claiming right of way. That other one hit it and ran away. The diesel loaded tanker lost control and hit another stationary but empty tanker. Both tankers fell covering d two exits into my sister's compound. Saving grace: the second tanker was empty else... saving grace again, it was a diesel tanker. she saw d tanker roll and explode just before getting to her frontage. She started screaming 'fire fire' in her confusion she sent her children inside. Then asked them to come outside. They had to scale d fence n run to safety. She was crying and called my parents, and her husband who was @ work. He was then one who called the fire service. He said he thought it was just a gas explosion in their kitchen. You c those cars that got burnt, that's where we park when u come to visit her. It was that close. But miraculously d house didn't burn. 3 people were burnt to ashes o. D driver, his conductor and one other person. When I went to see her in d evening it was a tourist site. Please you people should help me thank God for my sister's life. #long epistle#

  22. Anon 10:51am alias concerned mother, my dear it is your duty to discipline your child o. You can draw a time table for her and ensure that the only ticket to checking Stella's blog is when she has spent quality time with her books.It will not do any good if you say she should not visit here again cos she is fond of it already and will probably look for other means of checking it.
