A driver, who is yet top be identified has crushed two female officials of the Lagos Waste Management Authority, LAWMA to death, while attempting to escape a raid by officers of the Lagos State Traffic Management Agency (LASTMA).
An eyewitness said the two yet-to-be-identified women died on the spot.
The incident happened around the Charlie Boy bus-stop via Oshodi- Gbagada expressway in Lagos State on Monday.
The lifeless bodies of the cleaners were seen laid in a drainage channel as onlookers mourned.
The eyewitness said, “It was a ghastly accident; two LAWMA women were just knocked down by a Sienna vehicle while they were carrying out their duty.
“We don’t know what was wrong with the driver; he just drove straight here and hit the two women. It is such a pity.
“The driver has been arrested and handed over to the police.”
Meanwhile, hundreds of cars and commuters have been stuck in traffic for hours on the Oshodi-Gbagada motorway.
The bottleneck was further exacerbated when people stopped both routes of the motorway, causing a halt in traffic movement.
It was gathered that the influx of vehicles using the motorway lanes to get to their destinations created a traffic jam that detained several motorists.
However, according to reports, law enforcement authorities have arrived to prevent a disaster.
