well if you look at the pix closely you will noticed a car was loaded with fish from ijora olopa,it's one of our drivers,on getting to that particular spot,he never knew that the liquid from the tanker has already filled the porthole, his car that was loaded from ijora got stuck inside the ditch that was how the spark happened, as at the time of filling this the driver and one of the passengers where dead,then the other woman who sat with the other one who lost her life was able to to escape but was burnt out of recognition. the two dead has been taken to Seme,including the burnt one who was take after spending some hours at the hospital( at the back of the onireke police station ) let's give kudos to onireke police dpo he even sustained some injuries due to the fact that he was trying rescue people, secondly the container close to the tanker was carrying generators,some of the generators where burnt,but he was able to put the fire out.

This is Badagry Expressway! An eyesore.

An international road that leads to other countries, so pathetic and nauseating to see the neglect of govt to its responsibilities.

grin grin grin

Responses here make me laugh. So living in Ojo and environs can be a ghoulish experience ba? grin

Let me reiterate what I said about living there months ago:

Please if you know any child who is born and bred in Ojo/Iyana Ipaja/Iyana Iban/Okokomiako areas of Lagos and survives up to 50 years (2068). Kindly contact me by then and I'll reward him or her with a million in whatever currency s/he desires.

Regards.





Those areas mentioned above are horrible! They constitute the worst places I've been to in my life! Let's I forget, I have prognosticated tankers plying that road to fall and explode quite a number of times. It's simple logic. Roads are horrible, heavy-duty vehicles ply them, why won't they fall and spill their contents?

No matter how tense and confused I would be at the moment . Nothing will stop me from escaping

See Expressway..

PDP it shall never be well with you....

Do you live in Lagos at all? Why would you blame PDP for a road that Lagos State government has been constructing for 12 years?

I just pray you don't experience one yourself. Do you have any idea how fast a petrol fire can spread? Think before posting.

With this your comment, it shows that you are under rating the power of fire

But you will understand better if you become a victim

Leave that im.
That road is the worst in the whole of Lagos.....

That road when it was started by Fashola was at a slow pace because they complained that pdp was punishing them because it was an opposition state.
Enters Ambode,rushed the work then made it worse than it was before,with the useless CCECC.....there is no week,trailers won't fall down there.....its political....its a pdp enclave with above 60% non-indigenes,let them continue.....as long as Jagaban's tank farm isn't concerned,no p....

Rip to the lost souls including the police officer.....

Brother, funny enough. where Julius Berger was given has long been completed. They even assisted CCECC in doing the maza=maza bridge, cos i have observed and a staff said they do have issues with water bodies. they can spend ages, but J.B. will just build a bridge across and continue.

The present state of that road is because CCECC doesnt want Fed. govt to give JB another portion to handle. so CCECC will demolish and do little thing, then jump to another place and do another small, leave it, go to another area again. observe from alakija down to okoko (CCECC). but check first gate down to orile and costain (julis berger) and see the difference.
J.B. even compensnated Tinubu with a fully completed and fitted house (which was an agreement btw Tinubu and J.B) but after which He didnt assist dem with any other project till date. which is too bad.
