Again, container falls on Ojuelegba Bridge despite ban

A container has fallen on the Ojuelegba Bridge on Friday night affecting traffic flow in that area of Lagos.

This accident which happened around 8pm comes after the Lagos State Government banned articulated truck drivers from using Dorman Long and Ojuelegba bridges middle of February.

It would be recalled that the Government while enforcing the order also directed its Traffic Management Agency to arrest truck drivers that passed through the routes.

The container fell at the mouth of the bridge blocking access to traffic.

An armed policeman was spotted on the scene.

In January, a truck had fallen off the bridge and crushed the occupants of a commercial bus. The casualties included children.
