Just 24 hours after a container-laden truck crushed the occupants of a commercial bus in Lagos State, on Sunday, another one has fallen.
The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) confirmed the incident in a Tweet on Monday, stating it happened around Dopemu bridge in the State.
According to the traffic agency, the fallen 40 feet container occupied 90% of the road.
