Witnesses told our correspondent that the corpses of the deceased victims had been deposited at the morgue of the State Hospital.

An eyewitness who pleaded anonymity said, “The roofing sheet loaded trucks rammed into the four other affected vehicles.

“The accident, which was attributed to a brake failure, coupled with the ongoing construction works on the highway caused a gridlock on the expressway.

“The passers-by thought that the accident could have been averted had it been the Federal Government sped up the construction work on the highway.”

It was further that the vehicles were restricted to only one lane, thereby making vehicular movement extremely difficult.

‘The construction firm handling the project should open up the other lane to ease the traffic congestion in the area,” a passerby urged.

EFCC arraigns Blessing CEO over alleged N36m fraud

Social media influencer and relationship therapist Blessing Okoro, popularly known as Blessing CEO, has been arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over an alleged ₦36 million fraud case in Lagos. The influencer was docked before the Federal High Court in Ikoyi on Friday on a two-count charge bordering on obtaining money by false pretence and alleged theft. The EFCC alleged that Blessing CEO obtained ₦36 million from one Mrs Ifeyinwa Nonye Okoye between July 14 and 17, 2024, under the pretext of securing a six-bedroom duplex in Lekki, Lagos. Prosecutors claimed the representation was false and violated provisions of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud Related Offences Act, 2006. The anti-graft agency also accused her of converting the funds for personal use. Blessing CEO pleaded not guilty to the charges when they were read before the court. Following her plea, EFCC counsel requested that she be remanded pending trial, while her defence team informed the court that they had just received the charge documents and intended to file a bail application. Justice D.I. Dipeolu subsequently ordered that she be remanded in EFCC custody pending the hearing of her bail application. The matter was adjourned until June 5, 2026, for trial.
