An accident involving a blue Toyota Corolla and a silver Nissan
Xterra occurred today on the Lekki-Ikoyi bridge but passengers in both
cars miraculously survived with minor injuries.
According to witnesses, the silver suv was speeding along the
bridge shortly after exiting the toll gate, when it failed break, hit
the Toyota Corolla in front of it, and summersaulted.
The Nissan, driven by a uniformed soldier, had eight occupants, while
the Toyota reportedly had four occupants. The soldier had a cut on his
forehead and it was bleeding. A female passenger sat at the scene, too
weak to move, and complained of pain. Her jaw was visibly swollen but,
otherwise, there were no injuries on her body. Other passengers seemed
OK but shocked.
Federal Road Safety officials were on ground to assist the victims
while they waited for Emergency Services to arrive. The accident
occurred between 5 p.m. and 5:30 p.m.
