A private car plunged off the Otedola Bridge along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, in the early hours of Monday, triggering panic among commuters and passersby.
According to reports, the vehicle had four people onboard, all of whom sustained varying degrees of injuries.
However, the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority, in an update on X, confirmed only the rescue of the driver.
“Report of an accident of a car that fell from Otedola Bridge. The driver has been rescued and taken to the nearby hospital.
“There is backlog from Otedola Bridge to Berger inward Secretariat, but our officers are on scene managing the situation effectively.
“Other officers are also on ground doing the needful,” the agency stated.
The accident happened near the same location where a gas-laden truck exploded weeks ago, claiming the lives of at least six individuals.
