No fewer than seven persons were confirmed dead in two crashes at
the Kara end of Lagos-Ibadan Expressway and in the Fagba area of Lagos
on Thursday.
While the Kara incident was a multiple accident involving a truck
and some vehicles, a train rammed into a trailer on the railway line
along Fagba.
Four persons hanging on the train reportedly died while others sustained injuries.
Three casualties were also recorded in the road crash, which caused
a traffic jam on the expressway. The gridlock extended to the Ogba area
of the state.
The Lagos State Emergency Management Agency and the state police command confirmed the deaths.
