"There are vehicles that carry dangerous fuel oil, as in this case in Morogoro, there are others that carry toxic chemicals or explosives, let's stop this practice, please," he said.
And on Sunday, the President called upon Tanzanians to avoid a tendency of concluding that all those who were involved in the accident were ‘fuel thieves’.
“Some of those I have seen are not Morogoro residents…Some of them rushed to the scene so they could offer a helping hand,” said President Magufuli.
President Magufuli ordered Prof Museru to ensure that all the blast victims were given first class treatment and that the government would pay for all the costs.
Woman’s happy hour
President Magufuli’s visit was a blessing to one woman who had her problem solved.
The woman, whose, name could not be immediately established, had been taking care of her mother at the hospital for a long time.
Unfortunately, her mother died, leaving a health bill of Sh5 million.
She cried out to President Magufuli who then told the MNH management to release the body for burial, saying he would personally pay for the costs.
President Magufuli also issued Sh500,000 to the woman.
