Fallen container blocks Ojuelegba bridge
Once again, another container has fallen on the Ojuelegba bridge in Lagos state.
Container falls on Ojuelegba bridge
According to a Pulse eyewitness, the incident occurred between 6AM to 6:30AM, on her way to work, this morning (July 22, 2016).
The eyewitness said the trailer fell across the road, causing a loud noise, that could only be compared to an earthquake.

Road safety officials, including the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC), were later seen at the scene, trying to remove the obstruction.
Thankfully, there were no no accidents, or deaths, this time, unlike another incident in September, 2015.
Then, a trailer veered off the flyover and landed on vehicles, killing, at least, 10 people, with only one survivor, Akeem.
I think it's time for the state government to do something about these trailers, that keep falling.
