Fuel Tanker Fire: APC Mourns Victims.
The All Progressives Congress in Cross River State deeply mourns victims of the devastating fire incident along the Odukpani axis of the Calabar-Ikom Highway which occurred as a result of an explosion from a petrol tanker.
The incident is reported to have killed some persons while also causing several losses in terms of personal effects among other things.
As a people-oriented party we mourn these losses especially of humans just as we pray God to grant their souls eternal rest in the Lord's bossom.
For those who sustained varying degrees of injuries, it's equally our prayer that they experience quick recovery from the injuries sustained.
We call on relevant agencies of government to ensure speedy evacuation of the relics to allow free flow of traffic.
