Due to a tanker explosion this morning near Araromi town before the Interchange, the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has advised motorists and the general public to take alternate routes on the Lagos-Ibadan expressway.
Mr. Ahmed Umar, the FRSC Sector Commander in Ogun, stated this in a statement issued in Abeokuta.
Umar advised drivers to avoid unnecessary delays by taking alternate routes.
“The rescue operation is still on and the people involved are yet to be confirmed because a bus is also involved.”
“The crash scene has been cordoned off to avoid a secondary crash as traffic has been diverted.”
“Men from the fire service have arrived at the scene and an effort is being made to put out the fire.” “Traffic has been temporarily diverted at Lufuwape U-turn to ease the traffic situation,” he said.
He advised motorists to remain calm and cooperate with traffic managers controlling the situation.
