Sept 4, 2015 – Picture: Container Accident On Ikorodu Shagamu Expressway In Lagos, Another Trailer Fell, No Deaths Reported
Another incident involving a fully loaded container was reported today in Ikorodu area of Lagos.
Earlier today, a trailer driver conveying another 5 tonne container fell while descending from a slope on the popular Ikorodu Sagamu Expressway.
On getting to Winners Bus stop, the container dropped down but thankfully no life was lost.

The rate at which these container Trucks are involving in an accident is rampant. What is our local government or state government doing about preventing tragedy emanating from these container trucks. With the recent repeated occurrence of container trucks involving in an accident, I think any responsible government should have put all control measures in place immediately either by restricting their movement to night time, having them going thorough inspection before they depart from their base or come up with a law that affirms jail term for the container not well secured before going on government highway. My guess is because this tragedy is only affecting the poor people. If this might have happened to any family members of our legislators, they would have done something about it.
As long as Nigerians are still buying licence this nasty accidents will still continue. Corruption in the road safety must stop.
