Recent incidents highlight Nigeria’s struggle with truck crashes. Today, January 11, 2025, a loaded mini truck overturned on Lagos’ Third Mainland Bridge, injuring two people. The truck was carrying perishable goods near Unilag Waterfront when the accident occurred.

The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) is clearing the roadway and transloading goods. The accident caused significant traffic congestion; consider alternative routes.

This incident echoes the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway crash where Anthony Joshua lost friends. Experts urge improved safety measures.
