A truck driver and two of his assistants have been reported injured and hospitalised following a road accident that occurred along the Sagamu-Benin Expressway, Ijebu Ife.
The long truck, registered as BBJ-542XAF, was carrying gas when the incident occurred at about 12:35 am on Sunday.
Confirming the incident to DAILY POST, the police public relations officer, Omolola Odutola, said the injured victims were promptly transported to Ireayo Hospital for treatment. 
Odutola stated that the Ijebu-Ode fire service station was contacted, and one of their vehicles is on-site for safety measures.
She maintained that efforts are underway to recover the truck and that the motor traffic division is on-site to maintain a smooth flow of traffic.
Odutola, however, added, “Some impatient commuters have started to use alternate routes, blocking other vehicles from having their right of way.”
