Meet Alagbe Hezekiah, the driver who risked it all on Thursday, September 17, 2026.
I saw the trending video of the burning tanker moving with a driver inside, but honestly, I did not really believe it was real? Because for someone taking such a risk.
It happened that the a diesel filled tanker he was driving caught fire while it was being offloaded at a filling station in Iwo, Osun State.
And from what I have read about the incident, I think what he did came from two places: protecting the lives of people and equally getting the burning tanker away without it being consumed totally.
Because technically, if that tanker had remained where it was, we would not just be talking about a vehicle catching fire. We are talking about a tanker carrying diesel, a filling station, nearby shops, houses and people.
So he got into that tanker and slowly tried to drive it away from the populated area
and seeing that it was still on fire, he eventually played through driving skills of separating the truck head from the burning tanker. Reports say no life was lost.
But you see, watching that video, my first reaction was:
“Wow. Didn’t this man think about his family?”
Because this was not one of those situations where you can say, “Let me just try something and see how it goes.”
One wrong move and that could have been the end of his life.
He himself reportedly admitted that he knew the decision could cost him his life. He was scared, but he was also thinking about what could happen to other people if the tanker remained where it was.
And that is why I am celebrating this man.
I have seen only a few blogs carry this story, and I honestly find that surprising. Maybe it is because, thankfully, we are not counting a frightening number of deaths from the incident.
But sometimes, the absence of tragedy should actually the story.
We should not only talk about the tanker explosion that killed people. We should also talk about the person whose quick decision may have helped prevent one.
This is me celebrating Alagbe Hezekiah today.
And just like I heard, if it is true that the Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, awarded him ₦2 million for this act, then may God bless the Governor too.
But beyond the money and the praise, I would still tell him one thing:
Please, take even more precautions next time.
Because what you did was incredibly risky.
Courage is beautiful, but I hope you will always return home to your family after every trip.
Thank God no life was lost.
And today, I celebrate you, Alagbe Hezekiah.

Black tax is real and it is not going anywhere. But undefined help destroys people.
Give it a figure. 5% or 10% of income, monthly, non negotiable.
Undefined generosity turns every request into an obligation, and you start resenting people you actually love.
