Fake AI news. How come the motorbike suddenly vanished from the spot when the attendants have scrambled to get the fire extinguisher to go and quench the fire ?

Here in UK, USA and Europe where I have seen with my own eyes, you cant use your mobile at the fuel station because it will ignite fire and cause massive damage to life and property. We African s are so stupid to the extent that we even use mobile phones to make calls inside the plane when we have been clearly instructed not to and the we start shouting JESUS when something happens; so silly. No wonder people die by burning in Africa because they think its AI when a fuel tanker spills fuel on a hot tarmac. Common sense should tell us that it will ignite. When the driver of a tanker at Bogoso Apiatse was running away from his truck fearing explosion, the villages were running to it because of pure greed to collect booty and we all know what happened. Hopefully we enlighten ourselves and stop labelling fact as AI to save future lives of illiterates.

Fuel attendants know nothing about safety. They even pump the fuel while the vehicle's engine is still running. They say nothing when phones are in use. And from this video, they also don't know what the fire extinguishers near the pumps are to be used for. This is the country we're living in. Nobody is in charge of anything. It's all prayer sessions and "Nyame worhor".

The time used for the foolish and useless Politics by our useless Politicians and Governments should be used to conscience our people on certain things that should not be done. Now, we have some people who are least knowledgeable in Politics and Governance are trying to shift Political Party to where they can get some cheap and stolen money from Ghana. I mean the Greedy A Plus. Does he think NDC will want him in their Party? And NPP will not also want him back. He is done and finished in Ghana Politics. He is a crook and an opportunist so he can establish a One Man Church and come up with fake prophesies to dumbfound the many ignorant Ghanaians.

Mobile phone is just like fire at petrol dumps. Owners should place bold signs that mobile phone should be completely switched off at the petrol stations.

Is not the phone but rather the motor is overheating during fueling. Sometimes they over use the motor without thinking the outcome of the results

So y'all believe dudes phone is the cause? It's the motor's engine that was still running that cause the ignition.

The attendant should be sacked immediately. He surely should have known better to ask the rider to end his call and put away his phone before serving him. Though the driver was the person using the phone. The attendant fauled in his duty of health and safety rules and care. In my opinion the attendant failed . He should be sacked, he was lucky it was a mild fire incident. This could have caused a major fire outbreak with massive damage to the station premises. Why did he run. I hope to go and get the fire extinguisher.

No, your cellphone is extremely unlikely to start a fire while refueling. The belief is a widely circulated myth. There are no documented cases of a modern phone causing a gas pump fire, as they lack the power to ignite fuel vapors. The primary risk at gas stations is static electricity, not phones.
:::; Why the Myth Persists: While you won't spark an explosion, using a phone is often discouraged or banned to prevent distraction. Pumping gas requires attention to safety, and phone use can lead to accidents.
:::: The Real Danger (Static Electricity): Getting in and out of your car while fueling can build up static charge, which can cause a spark
