A vehicle accident, which occurred at Otedola Bridge outward toll gate on Saturday at about 7:15am, has claimed one life.
A blue coloured Hilux truck, with registration number FST 356 XS and a truck with registration FKJ 519 CF were involved in the crash.
Investigation revealed that the cause of the accident was due to over speeding by the driver, who lost control of his Toyota picnic and swerved to the line of the truck, hitting the Toyota Hilux by the driver side.
The quick intervention of LASEMA Emergency Response Unit led to the rescue of one male adult, while another dead person was removed.
The victims were treated by LASAMBUS at the scene, while the dead body was taken away by the Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC.
LASTMA has towed off the vehicles in order to ensure free flow of vehicular activities.
The General Manager LASEMA, Mr Michael Akindele, in a reaction, advised motorists against over speeding and to also adhere to safety precautions while driving.
