WE ARE TIRED OF THESE CONTAINERS FALLING OOOOO!!!!

In most cases, are we the architects of our own destruction?
Do we consciously or unconsciously bring harm to ourselves on a daily basis?

News just reaching us via the Vanguard website says eight people narrowly escaped death yesterday, after a 40-foot container fell off a truck and landed on five vehicles at Berger Yard Bus Stop, along Oshodi-Apapa Expressway, Lagos.

Motorists trapped in traffic abandoned their vehicles and ran for safety, apparently thinking it was a bomb explosion.

The truck driver and his motor boy were said to have been rushed to New Nigeria Hospital on Dillion Street, Kirikiri, from where they were referred to Lagos University Teaching Hospital, LUTH, Idi-Araba.

At the station, the escort revealed that the driver was smoking Indian hemp, when the accident happened.
He said: “We left Tin-Can Island Port at 2am and the driver took out a wrap of hemp.
“As we were approaching Berger Yard Bus Stop, he asked the motor boy to wrap a second one for him.
“He had barely puffed four times when the accident occurred. I do not smoke and I did not feel comfortable with the whiff of the Marijuana. But there was nothing I could do.”

In your opinion, what can be done about containers on Nigerian roads?

no be small. God help us
