One person has died and two others were injured in a multi-vehicle accident that occurred early Monday morning, May 12, along the Tradefair-Agbara Road in Lagos State.
The incident took place at approximately 5:36 a.m. at the Iyana Era Bus Stop.
According to a statement by Mr. Kehinde Hamzat, Lagos Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), the crash involved a blue Mack truck (registration number AKD 579 XM, commercial) and a silver Lexus saloon car (registration number LSR 545 JN, private).
“A total of five adult males were involved in the incident,” the statement read. “Preliminary investigations by the FRSC indicate that the crash was caused by speed violation and loss of control, despite the smooth condition of the road.”
The impact of the collision resulted in the death of one male adult, while two others sustained varying degrees of injuries.
Mr. Hamzat noted that the FRSC emergency response team arrived at the scene within four minutes of receiving the report and promptly began rescue operations. The injured victims were transported to Alimosho General Hospital for medical treatment.
