A truck with unknown registration number conveying two 20 feet containers fell sideways at Costain area of Lagos, inward Ijora today during the down pour.
The lone accident was attributed to tyres of the truck getting stuck in a pot hole covered with water in a failed portion of the road which was not visible, as a result of the flooded road, resulting from the rain.
Though there were no lives lost, the driver of the truck who sustained minor injuries, was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment by sympathizers, before arrival of LASEMA.
LASTMA and members of the Nigerian Police Force were co responders that took charge of traffic control at the scene of the incident, while LASEMA conducted the vehicle evacuation operation, with it’s heavy duty equipment.
