Less than 24 hours after a tragic truck explosion at Karu Bridge in Abuja, another truck has overturned near the same location, further worsening the traffic situation in the area.
A viral video shared by an eyewitness shows the truck lying across the road, blocking the movement of vehicles heading towards Nyanya. The incident has caused significant delays for commuters using the busy route.
Officials of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) and other law enforcement agencies are reportedly on the scene, working to clear the vehicle and restore the free flow of traffic.
This latest accident comes on the heels of a devastating explosion on the Karu-Nyanya Road on Wednesday evening. The explosion led to a massive inferno, engulfing multiple vehicles, with several people feared dead and others severely injured.
Authorities are yet to release an official statement on the overturned truck or any potential casualties. However, the frequency of such incidents in the area has raised concerns over road safety and the need for stricter enforcement of transportation regulations.
Motorists and residents have called on the relevant agencies to take urgent steps to prevent further accidents, as the Karu-Nyanya axis remains a critical route for daily commuters.
