“The tragic incident, which unfolded earlier today, led to the rescue of two individuals trapped in the wreckage, while two others were recovered lifeless.

“All victims were immediately conveyed to the General Hospital, Ikorodu, where the survivors currently receive medical care.

“Preliminary investigations revealed that the loaded container truck suffered a brake failure while allegedly attempting to evade a revenue collector in pursuit.

“This mechanical failure triggered a catastrophic chain of events, including collisions with other vehicles and damage to nearby buildings,” he said.

He said that LASTMA officials promptly cordoned off the accident site using caution tape to safeguard the public and facilitate the operations of emergency responders.

The LASTMA boss condoled with the families of the deceased and lauded the heroic efforts of the rescue teams.

He extended his best wishes for a swift recovery to the injured survivors.

“Efforts to clear the accident scene are underway, with LASTMA officials working tirelessly to remove the trucks and restore seamless traffic flow in the affected area,” he said.

The agency reaffirmed its steadfast commitment to ensuring road safety.

It urged all road users to exercise caution and adhere strictly to traffic regulations to avert similar incidents in the future. (NAN)
