We should be careful how we use the "Fall on you" word.




Now, see how a 40ft container "fall on them"




May their souls find rest.

This is the third time, I have experienced this sort of incident in Lagos!

Authorities should step up their policy on road safety, especially when connected to container haulages.

A law should be immediately enacted at the state legislature, such that, before vehicles leave the premises, safety rules and regulations should be followed, any one found wanting, the said company will be shut down for 6 months without option of fine!
Put it this way, those that loss their lives untimely, can they come back to live, or can money bring back human live!!
Enough is enough!!
Lagos state government, and other Government facing similar ugly incidences, the ball is in your court!
It could be your son or daughter, or family relations tomorrow.
The Lord is our strength!
