Early this morning, a containerized truck fell as it descended from the Iponri bridge, inward Alaka, Surulere.

The fallen truck caused a huge backlog of vehicular traffic, as it significantly blocked access on the affected lane on the bridge.

The hardworking personnel of LASTMA and the traffic arm of the Nigeria Police were on ground to manage the traffic situation.

At the time of going to press, heavy-lifting equipment of the LASEMA Response Unit (LRU) were being still being expected, in order to recover the fallen truck from the scene.

why would the country allow a moving container to climb bridge, they didn't consider the weight, all the container need to b cleared and be offload to lorry size.... why would a moving container passes through where peoples are?

Okay....and so

Why is this news?

Trucks falling off bridges in Lagos is a normal occurrence like breathing air.

Trust Lagos, LASMA & LRU with other agencies will handle that.
However, container movement needs to be regulated and monitored..
Too much incidences in recent times

Normally I commend the LRU for their excellent and timely rescue operations, but today's own their operation on this truck was rubbish. From morning till now, they just managed to stand the truck with its container. As I type now, the bridge descending to alaka is still blocked. Imagine if the container had fallen on a car or bus and there were people inside, by now they would all be dead due to the inefficiency of LRU. #liveReport

Normal thing in 9ja

hmm
