Advert enquiry
Lagosians in the Apapa area of Lagos state risked their lives to scoop diesel from a tanker that overturned on the Liverpool bridge in the Apapa area of Lagos state this morning January 19.
Disclosing this in a statement via X, the Lagos State Traffic Management Agency (LASTMA) said traffic has been diverted to the other side of the bridge for safety measures. According to the statement, emergency officials, including operatives of the Lagos State Fire Service, the Nigeria Police Force, and LASTMA, are currently on ground to avert a tragedy.
Also present are men of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Department of State Services (DSS), and Nigeria Ports Authority (NPA).
“Their presence is to prevent fire outbreaks, evacuation of truck and free flow of traffic”, the statement added.
Videos posted online showed residents of the area with several jerrycans and buckets scooping as much diesel as possible.

See Tinubu people. Ebi n pa won oh.
I blame Tinubu for this
Disgraceful country shameless leaders
People are seriously suffering in Nigeria, but the Nigerian government and system have made them adapt without any complain. In fact, everyone is like a kidnapped person, and the ransom is to support any criminal in power. A zoo is better than Nigeria...Biafra must surely emerge...E
Agbadorians scavenging diesel because of Tinubu induced hunger and hardship! Make dem no roast like asun o!
See what hunger can do? Some where even directly under the flow from the leakage. No wonder Christ the Master prayer for forgiveness over lots of fools.
How government go dey protect people wey no value their life
See what given birth to too many children without plans to take care of them can do
I thought Southern people are educated. Wether North or South, hunger no get face true true.
This is showers of blessing 2026
