Eleven vehicles were destroyed on Thursday as a tanker exploded at the Lagos Quadrapont Bridge better known as Iganmu Bridge.

Briefing reporters during the visit of some state cabinet members who visited the scene on Friday, the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Gbenga Omotoso, said there is no truth in the reports making the rounds that some lives were lost to the fire incident.

Omotoso commended all the first responders for their prompt response to the accident while also assuring residents that the site would soon be cleared of the burnt vehicles to ensure the free flow of traffic on the axis. He also corrected insinuations that the accident was due to a bad road, saying the state government had been carrying out palliative works on the road to ensure smooth transportation around the axis.

Other Cabinet members at the site include the Commissioner of Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, and his Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Relations counterpart, Gbenga Oyerinde as well as Special Adviser on Works Engr. Olayinka Adekunle
