Tragic Accident Claims Three Lives in Lagos Market

A devastating truck accident occurred in Ayetoro Market, Lagos, on Monday, resulting in the loss of at least three lives.

According to the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA), the tragedy was caused by brake failure.

LASTMA officials swiftly responded to the scene, diverting traffic to ensure smooth vehicular movement. A tow truck was also deployed to evacuate the affected vehicles.

The bodies of the victims have been taken to the morgue at Epe General Hospital. Authorities are working to investigate the incident and prevent similar tragedies in the future.

The accident serves as a reminder of the importance of vehicle maintenance and road safety. The Lagos State government has urged drivers to ensure their vehicles are in good working condition to prevent such incidents.
