The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority says one of its teams, led by Akinde Olusola averted a fire disaster around the Stadium Bridge in Ojuelegba earlier today.

A statement issued by the Director, Public Affairs and Enlightenment Department of LASTMA, Adebayo Taofiq confirmed that a gas-laden truck hit the newly erected barrier at Alaka inward Stadium, thereby spilling its contents.

But LASTMA officials swung in immediately, invited other emergency responders, particularly the Lagos State Fire Service, and condoned off the main carriageway at Alaka by Stadium bridge for motorists to avert any fire.

Confirming the arrest of the truck driver, Taofiq quoted General Manager of LASTMA, Bolaji Oreagba, instructing heavy truck drivers to always make use of the service lane from Alaka inward Stadium down to Ojuelegba.
