AN empty tanker, on Friday, caught fire at its top on Odo-Iya-alaro Bridge along Maryland in Lagos State.
In a telephone interview with TribuneOnline, the Public Relations Officer, Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA), Adebayo Kehinde said the tanker was not fuel-laden but caught fire due to its condition.
He pointed out that no casualty was recorded due to the incident.
Kehinde, however, said that the incident caused major gridlock around the axis, connecting Tipper garage, Ojota-Interchange and Motorways plaza.
