As the fuel crisis continues to take its toll on Nigerians, many people have resorted to drastic measures to lay hands on the scarce resource.
The scenario depicted in the photo above reportedly happened at Ibara, Abeokuta this afternoon.
A petrol tanker laden with fuel fell with some of its content spilling on the ground.
Desperate Nigerians who are already suffering from the effects of the lingering fuel scarcity decided to scoop some of the spilled fuel into their jerry cans.
Several men and women trooped to the site to fill their cans with the scarce resource not minding the apparent danger posed.
