The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) in collaboration with other emergency responders on Thursday, July 18, averted a catastrophic disaster, following the fall of a PMS-laden truck at the Ojota interchange ramp.

The incident occurred around 2 pm when a truck lost control and fell, spilling its flammable content on the road.

LASTMA officers promptly arrived at the scene to manage traffic and secure the area. Their swift action prevented any ignition sources from coming in contact with the spilled fuel, which could have led to a major explosion.
