The Ogun State Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Corps (TRACE), on Wednesday, said one person died while two others sustained various degrees of injuries in an accident that involved two trucks along Lagos-Abeokuta expressway.

Mrs. Tope Oseni, the Owode-Ijako Unit Commander of TRACE, told reporters in Ota, Ogun that the accident happened about 8.15 a.m.

According to him, the accident occurred when a Benz truck marked AG 685 MRK, which was heading to Sango-Ota from Abeokuta broke the side mirror of a Scania truck with registration number LSR 74 XV.

Oseni, however, advised motorists to be patient, saying that two wrongs could not make a right.
