The truck consequently rammed over the commercial tricycle and other passengers-bearing vehicles from the rear, before dumping them into the nearby canal.

 

The Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the Ogun State-owned Traffic Compliance and Enforcement agency (TRACE), Babatunde Akinbiyi, who confirmed the accident to LEADERSHIP, said corpses of the deceased had been evacuated from the canal and deposited at the morgue of the state hospital in Sango-Ota, while the injured victim was also rescued to the same hospital for treatment.

Akinbiyi further stated that security operatives, which included the Police, TRACE Corps and operatives of the NSCDC were still awaiting the arrival of officials of the National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas (NUPENG) with equipment to trans-load the petroleum product from the MAC tanker, which has caused serious traffic gridlock in the axis.
