PHOTOS: Many escape death as container-carrying truck falls on Lagos bridge
Many people narrowly escaped death after a container laden truck fell on Odo Iya Alaro Bridge (Maryland-Ojota link Bridge) Sunday morning.
Emergency Response Team said the injured victims were given first aid treatment at the scene.
The incident led to a gridlock in the axis but operatives of LASEMA arrived shortly after to evacuate the fallen truck.
Lagos residents have been crying out against the danger indiscriminate movement of articulated trucks poses on the roads, without appropriate action from the government.
