One person was late on Saturday night killed and another was injured as a truck fell off the Ojuelegba bridge in Lagos State along Funsho Williams Avenue.
This is just as millions of naira worth of goods were early Sunday destroyed as fire ravaged the popular Odo-Eran Sawmill in the Agege area of the state.
The Tribune Online gathered that the unidentified deceased man was an occupant of a Honda saloon car, whose vehicle was mangled by the accident truck.
The driver of the truck reportedly lost control while driving on the bridge and his attempt to regain the control of the vehicle led to the truck tumbling down the bridge and fell on the Honda car with a lone occupant.
The director of the state Fire and Rescue Service, Margaret Adeseye confirmed the Odo-Eran fire incident in a short statement, signed by her on Sunday.
