Nearly 24 hours after a petrol-laden tanker exploded along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, traffic has yet to ease, with scores of motorists and commuters stranded in what many now describe as a nightmare without end.
The Wednesday incident, which occurred in front of the NASFAT Camp, caused a massive gridlock that has paralysed movement on the expressway.
As of Thursday morning, vehicles heading towards Ibadan remained at a complete standstill, while those coming into Lagos were being redirected to share two narrow lanes.
Despite early assurances from the Federal Road Safety Corps that clearance efforts were underway, the situation has barely improved. (Punch)
