It was gathered that the inferno started at about 8pm when the accident involving a gas tanker led to an explosion with motorists and other road users fleeing in different directions.

Director of Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, Margaret Adeseye, disclosed and confirmed that the inferno was being curtailed as it has spread to properties along the road leading to the Otedola bridge.

According to her, “The 30 tonnes DAF Gas Truck with an unknown registration number is on its way navigating the Lagos-Ibadan expressway before an accident resulting in an ensuing explosion accompanied with fireballs in front of a Redeemed Church.”
