The Accident Scene
In a devastating vehicle collision that occurred earlier today on the Eko Bridge inward Alaka corridor, two dispatch riders tragically lost their lives following a crash involving two fully loaded Mack trucks, identified by registration numbers T-10357 LA, and KJA 107 XM. The fatal incident has sent ripples of grief and alarm through the Lagos motoring public.
Preliminary findings suggest that the driver of one of the articulated trucks, reportedly driving at an excessive speed while allegedly dozing off, lost control of the vehicle. The truck then crashed into another moving trucks ahead of it, triggering a violent impact.
This catastrophic collision led to the dislodgement of a 20-foot container from one of the trucks, which subsequently crushed two unsuspecting dispatch riders who were navigating the route at the time. Both victims were confirmed dead at the scene.
Swift and coordinated response from Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) Officers, who were on routine traffic monitoring duty beneath the Eko Bridge, ensured the immediate rescue of one severely injured truck driver. He was promptly transported to a nearby hospital in a Lagos State Government ambulance for urgent medical attention.
However, the remaining two truck drivers absconded from the scene, presumably out of
fear of the grim aftermath.
