A tragic accident happened at 10 AM today at Powerline junction, heading toward Aleje in Ikorodu.

A tipper truck lost its brakes and crashed into three tricycles, a Corolla car, and an MPV bus.

The crash claimed three lives and left several people hurt. Emergency teams from LASAMBUS, along with Nigerian Police and other officials, quickly arrived at the scene to help and manage the situation.

Traffic has built up far beyond Sabo roundabout.

Officials have set up counterflowing traffic to ease the jam. Drivers coming from Ikorodu Garage are also facing delays.

Authorities are working to clear the road and restore normal flow. Motorists should avoid the area if possible and use other routes.

This incident highlights the need for regular vehicle checks to prevent such events. Stay updated on bestlagos.ng for more Lagos news.
