LASEMA says it is still carrying out a further investigation but already confirmed that the incident was mainly caused by the recklessness of the trailer driver. He was said to have driven the trailer recklessly hence, caused the container (tanker) to lose balance and eventually fell on the cars that were parked by the roadside. Luckily, no life was lost to this incident and no human suffered injuries from the incident.

In other news, the Government of Lagos state has reportedly started demolishing distressed buildings across several parts of the state while also clearing out “illegal” areas where people park their cars. Below is a press video which gives more details about this report.
