There are reports that three people lost their lives earlier today
in a motor accident on the 3rd Mainland Bridge in Lagos causing heavy
traffic gridlock on the ever busy link between Lagos Mainland and the
Island. The accident involved a Black Prado Jeep whose three occupants
reportedly died on the spot. The driver of the car was said to have been trapped with efforts being made to extricate him from the wreck. The
reason for the accident is yet to be ascertained but sources say the
car lost among its tyres while on top speed making the driver lose
control of the jeep. As a consequence of this, there's heavy traffic on
the bridge, though traffic officers are trying their utmost to revive
normalcy.
