A truck owned by the Dangote Group, which was coming into Lagos, had a brake failure at the border between Lagos and Ogun and crashed into a billboard, causing a multiple collision involving six vehicles.
The Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) says 14 people were badly injured, while one person died.
An eyewitness said FRSC responded instantly to rescue people and clear the scene. The nearby FRSC station is less than a minute away.

Sunday Omafu, the commandant of the station said, “Proximity is not necessarily a factor.
We have units that patrol the expressway under our cover, and they have a mandate to detect emergencies and radio us here at the station.
Then we respond immediately. FRSC has stations strategically spread out on all expressways so that our men can move in during any emergency within 15 minutes. We do our job.”
