At least six people lost their lives on Sunday at Second Rainbow in the Amuwo Odofin Local Government Area of Lagos when a tanker crashed into a commercial bus, a saloon car, and two motorcycles.

The tanker driver’s break failure led to the accident at 4 p.m., Persecondnews gathered.

The brake of the tanker failed, and it crashed into those two vehicles. They have recovered some bodies… about six or seven,” a witness said.
