Two serious road accidents occurred on Friday morning at Otedola Bridge, inward Lagos.
SaharaReporters gathered that the first and most severe incident involved a fully loaded truck that lost control and overturned on the bridge.
The truck reportedly spilled its cargo across the road, covering about 90 per cent of the carriageway and rendering the route nearly impassable to other road users.
This was contained in a statement by the Lagos State Rapid Response Command, which confirmed that emergency responders had been alerted to clear the spilled consignments and prevent further accidents.
The statement read, "In the first incident, a fully loaded truck overturned, spilling its consignments onto the road and covering about 90% of the carriageway.
"The second accident occurred directly behind the first crash, compounding traffic disruption in the area.
"Emergency responders have been alerted. Motorists are advised to drive with caution around the area."
