 Newlyweds and 16 others injured in accident on 3rd mainland bridge


A newlywed couple returning to the mainland from the Ikoyi Marriage Registry were amongst the 18 persons involved in a ghastly accident that occured on the Third Mainland Bridge, near Ilaje, heading towards Iyana Oworonsoki today December 7. 


The accident, which involved a mini truck (AGL 22 YE) and a commercial LT bus (BFG 204 XF), was attributed to a brake failure on the LT bus, which was traveling at excessive speed. The bus collided with the mini truck, which was moving slowly due to mechanical difficulties.


A statement released by the spokesperson of the Lagos Traffic Management Agency LASTMA, Adebayo Taofiq, said a total of 16 passengers seated in the rear of the LT bus—11 women and 5 men—sustained significant injuries and were swiftly transported to the Lagos State Trauma and Emergency Centre near the Toll Gate on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway for urgent medical care.


He said two additional passengers seated at the front of the LT commercial bus were trapped in the wreckage and suffered severe fractures to their limbs. He mentioned that they were extricated with the combined efforts of LASTMA personnel, emergency responders and concerned bystanders. These victims were later rushed to Gbagada General Hospital for specialized treatment.


Adebayo said the Lagos State Ambulance Service (LASABUS) and the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA) Response Unit (LRU) facilitated the swift evacuation of all casualties to medical facilities.


Law enforcement officers from Alonge Police Station and operatives of the Lagos State Task Force provided critical security support at the accident scene, ensuring order during the rescue operation.
