A deadly crash involving a Dangote-owned truck at Four Corner, Enugu State, has claimed several lives, eyewitnesses say.
The incident, which occurred on Wednesday, has once again drawn attention to the dangers posed by heavy-duty trucks on Nigerian roads.
According to witnesses, the truck suddenly lost control, crushing pedestrians and commuters in its path.
“It was horrifying. People were screaming, and there was chaos everywhere,” one bystander recounted. The exact death toll remains unclear, as rescue operations continue.
This tragedy adds to a string of fatal accidents linked to large trucks owned by the conglomerate, fueling anger among residents and motorists alike.
Many are urging state and federal authorities to take immediate steps to regulate the operation of heavy vehicles.
Calls for action are growing louder, with some suggesting stricter movement schedules, speed limits, and dedicated lanes for trucks to prevent further loss of life.
Road safety advocates warn that without concrete measures, such accidents are likely to continue.
As of now, officials in Enugu have not released a formal statement regarding the crash or the casualties, leaving the public anxious for updates.
