Otedola Bridge: Ghastly accident again on Lagos bridge in less than 24hrs after Tanker fire tragedy

In less than 24 hours after tragedy struck at the Otedola Bridge, Lagos end of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, after a petrol-laden tanker crashed and exploded, another ghastly accident has occurred involving two commercial buses.

According to the Rapid Response Squad, the accident occurred as a result of the recklessness of the Danfo driver who drove against traffic.

“Due to the driver’s speed, he hit the Toyota Hiace bus coming into Lagos on the Otedola Bridge,” police said.

The police revealed that the buses have been removed from the scene and injured passengers have been taken to the hospital.
