The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority, LASTMA, has confirmed an accident involving a fully loaded tanker that experienced brake failure, resulting in the loss of three lives.

The General Manager of LASTMA, Mr Olalekan Bakare-Oki, said the incident occurred at approximately 6:00 p.m. on Sunday at Second Rainbow, inward Mile 2 along Oshodi-Apapa Expressway.

A statement signed by Mr Taofiq Adebayo, Director of Public Affairs and Enlightenment Department, revealed that the tanker collided with two Volkswagen Commercial buses and a Honda car (KTU 223 GH).

Adebayo said the victims, passengers in one of the Volkswagen buses, succumbed to their injuries at the scene.

He added that LASTMA officers swiftly responded to the emergency, securing the area and handing over two of the deceased to Festac Police Station security personnel, stressing that one of the victim’s family was present and took custody of their loved one.

He commiserated with the bereaved families, emphasising the importance of road safety.

“Emergency responders, including Lagos State Fire Services and Lagos State Ambulance Service (LASAMBUS), were also at the scene.

“We are deeply saddened by this loss. Tanker drivers must adhere to speed limits and prioritise safety, especially when carrying hazardous materials. Speed and safety must never be compromised on our roads,” he said.
