A petrol tanker with the petroleum product has exploded on Otedola bridge in Lagos on Friday.

Daily post gathered that the Fire Service, the Police, LASTMA, LASEMA and FRSC are at the scene to control the situation and manage traffic.

The Sector Commander, Federal Road Safety Corps in Lagos, Olusegun Ogungbemide while debunking that the incident occurred as a result of black power, insisted that there are no demons in the area.

Ogungbemide blamed reckless drivers and expired trucks for recurrent crashes.

In December 2020, at least 11 people sustained injuries when a tanker, loaded with diesel, exploded on the bridge.
