• Residents lament neglect of road repairThere was mass hysteria by residents and road users along the Tradefair-Volks axis of the Lagos-Badagry expressway when a petrol-laden tanker fell and poured its content on the busy highway. In what seems to have becoming a recurring incidence on Lagos highways, especially at that axis, an articulated truck containing petrol on Monday at about 4:00p.m. tilted over while trying to make a U-turn at the Ojo Barracks bus-stop, along the Tradefair-Volks area. The incident caused a standstill on the expressway, which went on for most part of the day far into the night. This accident comes on the heels of a previous tanker fire explosion at the Fin-Niger bus-stop at the weekend.
