An unmarked tanker loaded with Petroleum Motor Spirit (PMS) has landed into a ditch around the Shagamu-Ijebu Ode highway in Ogun.
The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) said the accident happened on Saturday.
“The vehicle lost control due to excessive speed, fell into a ditch, fully loaded with PMS, “said FRSC, Ogun spokesperson Florence Okpe.
“Fire service men are on ground. The scene cordoned for caution and to avoid secondary crash. Traffic has been diverted to the other lane. FRSC operatives are fully on ground managing the traffic situation.”
