A tragic collision between two Mazda commercial buses occurred on the Lagos Third Mainland Bridge, resulting in one fatality and eight injuries.
The accident happened near the Ilaje area, with reports indicating that the buses were engaged in a high-speed chase before colliding head-on.
Reckless driving was a contributing factor, as both vehicles were speeding from the Adeniji Adele axis towards Iyana-Oworonsoki prior to the crash.
Emergency services from the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) responded quickly to the scene, rescuing the eight injured passengers who suffered serious fractures.
They were transported to Gbagada General Hospital by Lagos State Ambulance Services (LASAMBUS) for urgent medical attention.
