Accidents are bound to happen. That's why it's good to always pray silently(in spirit), is necessary.
Rest in Peace to the dead.
For those saying a Prophet marked today as Doomsday, I pity your life. You now believe humans instead of God, that you are re-quoting dates for us. Any person that always informing people of bad things to come without praying against it or not atleast saying something good to happen. Then, such person is nothing but a False Prophet.
I have the habit of praying when driving, not that I can't drive well as I am a guru but I am aware that there could be sudden mechanical failure. So all I say is Jesus take the wheels be it at 60 or 140.

No!! it is that River Ovia!! There was a sign board by that river admonishing the river goddess to stop killing passengers. I saw this signboard myself when we had to stop there because of an accident on that very bridge. I used to frequent this bridge during my Uni days.

Let the government raise a 7 feet barrier to see if na the River. If it is the River it must pull vehicles over the barrier o

Good roads.

Clear weather.

Divided highway.

Potential cause of crash:

1. Reckless driving.

2. High speed driving.

3. Drunk driving.

4. Mechanical fault, i.e. tie rod popped off from previous sojourn on bad stretch of road.

A horrific accident happened earlier today which left some passengers dead, according to reports. It was gathered that a vehicle veered off the highway and plunged into Ovia River at Evbonogbon, on the Edo- Ondo Boundary, on the Lagos-Benin Expressway.

Passersby and other motorists launched a rescue mission to save the occupants after the accident..

A video footage posted online shows the shocking moment a baby was pulled out of the sunken vehicle.

The exact number of casualties are yet to be ascertained as at the time of writing this report.

Source; https://www.nationalhelm.co/2018/07/car-plunges-into-a-river-on-lagos-benin-road.html

Watch video of rescue HERE.

The evil ones are at work again.

People should always move away from that rail after any accident, many years ago a bus plunged into that ovia river, another vehicle rammed into the sympathizers and plunged some of them into the river.

It was that tragic, those rails has been changed and made stronger every now and then but vehicles just keep driving into it.

The barriers are not high and long enough,government should do something about that spot or the evil ones will keep using it to claim souls.

Nothing about Nigeria amazes me anymore. With guard rails, there's no way any vehicle will go into the river. Unnecessary waste of human life.

cry cry cry
Lord God how can I thank you enough for my life
I pass that route often, as I did again just yeasterday and
i pass that bridge often with the thought of my dear friend
Sola who was plunged into that same river
I am in awe of your love and protection
I thank you for Sola now gone,
Lord i miss Solabut i take solace in you Father
I thank you because You are the Creator and I cannot question you
Father yet again another accident into that river
Jesus save us, save your people
Let people not plunge into that river
Let there not be deaths
Let us not answer the sirens of the evil ones when they call at us
Keep us safe over land, sea and in the air.
Let us not die outside your plan for our destinies
For i am assured that you have a plan for my future
To give me a sure hope
In Jesus mighty name, amen

Most rivers are worshiped, the evil ones use it as a medium to commit their devilish acts.

May the families of those left behind find comfort.

One rainy Saturday morning in June 2015 on my way to Warri from Lagos, I crashed my Superbike right on this same bridge.
