3 Escape Death as Container Falls on Car at Lagos’ Daleko Bridge
Three persons escaped death when a 40-foot containerised truck fell onto a Toyota Camry at Daleko Bridge inward Isolo, according to the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA). In a statement by public affairs head Olawale Afolabi, the agency said the container detached from a tow truck while ascending the bridge due to a mechanical fault — a broken turntable.
The three car occupants escaped unhurt. Recovery operations involved LASEMA’s heavy-duty crane alongside a private crane. Traffic was temporarily diverted during the response.

Three lives were spared due to the container falling sideways rather than crushing the car directly.

Motorists on Daleko Bridge faced travel delays during hours of recovery operations.
Truck owners face renewed calls from LASEMA to ensure proper vehicle maintenance.
