Yesterday, a Toyota Sienna bus, skidded off the Third Mainland Bridge and plunged into the lagoon. The incident which happened around 11 a.m., shortly after the monthly environmental exercise, sent jitters down the spine of many as reports claimed that the bus was fully loaded with passengers, a claim that is yet to be ascertained as at the time of filing in this report.
However, a lone victim identified as Shola Oladimeji, was rescued by local divers and rushed to the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH), Ikeja by men of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC).
