So sad such ugly accident occurred,just hope no life was Lost,
Had it been nigeria as a country is ready for development,such explosive products are supposed to be transported through pipelines to various states and get rid of old trucks in pitiable conditions conveying such highly inflameable products ..

To me, this Otedola bridge is cursed, I can't count the number of accidents that have been reported from this bridge alone so far.

It was on this particular bridge that God saved my life one time like that.

I hope no casualties.
otedola bridge isn't cursed, the terrain of the road will always be recipe for disaster especially for heavy duty vehicle descending and ascending the bridge. Roll back while ascending the bridge is common among heavy duty trucks especially in traffic hold up. The solution is reconstruction of the road to reduce the slope

This Otedola bridge should be renamed Kanayo O Kanayo Bridge

If you know u know🚢🚢

I think the problem is the slope. Maybe it's sometimes difficult for loaded tankers to navigate.

Whoever designed that bridge should be arrested.

That's the only bridge in Lagos that's designed like a valley and that't why the accidents keeps occuring. The governemnt should demolish and reconstruct that bridge.

Vehicles can't even easily pass under the bridge. I havent seen any similar bridge in Lagos.

The bridge should start at Mobil filling station and end at Capital oil filling station at the other end but whoever handled it must have used half of the money to build a house

There is something structural wrong with that bridge and we have engineers with first class in this country but the government will not call them to check what is happening and reward them handsomely until some other countries that value knowledge snatch our brilliant minds away.

It's just a bridge

It looks exactly as one.

But.

Sometimes the truth and the fact are so close, too close we can't see the differences.

Dat household name attached to the bridge does ring a bell
