Three people have reportedly lost their lives while several others sustained various degrees of injuries in a ghastly auto crash which occurred in the early hours of Wednesday at Iyana-Merian Bus Stop along Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway.

The accident involved a cement truck, a mini bus, and four tricycles.

The truck, reportedly coming from Sango Ota, was said to have lost its brakes and rammed into the mini bus and the tricycles that were waiting to pick up passengers at the bus stop.

As at the time of filing this report, one of the corpses was still lying on the road, while another victim was trapped inside the mini bus.
