The photos below show some broken down trucks and some that were involved in road mishaps.

These events occurred within a 72 hour period in Lagos state.

And these are just a few of these scenarios that we were privy to.

In Lagos, broken down trucks have become ubiquitous sights on roads. They also contribute to the legendary traffic gridlock that Lagos state is notorious for.

When trucks break down or have crashed or their containers fall off their carriers at such a high frequency, it ought to be a source of urgent concern to the society.

How road-worthy are these trucks? Whose responsibility is it to ensure that containers are well fastened on their carrier trucks?

Is this not an indirect indictment on the competence of the VIO in the area of vehicle inspection and certification?
Is the VIO up to their responsibilities?

Since it appears that the VIO failing in its responsibility, is it not time to privatize the responsibility of routine inspection of Nigeria’s entire trucking fleet?

Or who do you think we should hold responsible for this high-frequency truck-related accidents and breakdowns on our roads?

Dangote must always find a way to be number one.

The guy above stole my FTC, I need to charge him to court.

Nigeria my Nigeria

No wonder Lagos is blocked

bleeped

Na wa ooo

THE FEDERAL AND STATE GOVERNMENT should do something about this menace ASAP.

This is becoming an eye sore pls!

Nigeria is simply a jungle, it is a pity, nothing is working

Dangote must !

#1 truck causing issues on the road Dangote always on point

Come under bridge tradefair and iyanaiba route and see more.

Dangote truck causing go slow since 1999

The government should just give these trucks time to operate. Maybe night or whatever. The killings, accidents and breakdown on the roads are too much

Who we offend na..oh lawd

That's one of the works of LASTMA to divert traffic and provide any available alternative route without causing gridlock and find means of moving the trucks away from the road.

I feel dangote is above Nigeria. The guy and his companies get away with anything..

Lagos is Nigeria and Nigeria is Lagos

Canada needs truck drivers . Lets send these guys over there. Make dem go drive inside snow

Don't forget your mum's advice? She is speaking from a place of love and experience

VIO officials will not see these trucks but will rather chase after private vehicles.

Hmmm!!!! It will be well with Nigeria. Let us not lose hope. Click on the link on my signature to know how to export products and make real money.

Bad Belle is the cause ... enemies of progress

He still dey find money nah

VIO focus exclusively on shaking down private motorists, that's why we have all these junk trucks on the road.

Nigeria is a sick country.
