At least nine persons have been confirmed killed and over 54 vehicles burnt beyond recognition in the petrol tanker explosion that occurred at Otedola bridge in Lagos yesterday, 28th of June 2018.
An eyewitness, Otunbakush took to Twitter to recount his experience. According to him, the deaths could have been avoidable as those involved had time to save themselves but instead chose to save their vehicles with attempts to reverse, while others made videos of the incident while still seated in their vehicles.
