The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) reported that rescue and evacuation efforts were continuing at the accident scene. When the truck lost control and fell over the side of the bridge on Sunday, the commercial bus was reportedly picking up passengers at the bus stop along the Ojuelegba Bridge. A Twitter user @PoojaMedia shared that the truck fell while trying to prevent a bus from overtaking it. “Container just fell on a bus at Ojuelegba bridge. There are people inside the bus (full load) as health officials are giving them trip. We need emergency here to lift the container,” @PoojaMedia tweeted. “Speaking to an eyewitness (an Uber driver), he said the trailer wanted to block the bus from overtaking him immediately he overtook the trailer as he saw everything through his side mirror. He went to turn at the roundabout to see the impact.” However, the Director-General of the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA), Dr Olufemi Oke-Osanyintolu who also confirmed the incident in a statement noted that an adult female was rescued alive.
