In another part of Lagos, Oke-Osanyintolu said LASEMA Response Unit recovered a trailer conveying a 40ft container that ran over a culvert at Mile 2 inward Kirikri earlier on Sunday.

He added, “Investigation by the LRT determined that the accident was a result of a mechanical error (brake failure) of the trailer.

“No loss of life, nor injuries were recorded in the incident where the LRT, LASTMA, and men of the Nigerian Police were responders.

“The affected Trailer has been evacuated off the road to a layby with aid of the agency’s heavy-duty equipment.”
