Many have been reportedly feared dead in a multiple auto accident along Ilesha-Akure Highway.
The accident occurred around 11:00am on Monday, at Erin-Ijesa, Oriade Local Government Area of Osun state.
A diesel ladder tanker reportedly fell and spilled its content after which massive explosion erupted and led to gridlock on the road.
Many motorists got stacked as a result of the accident.
However, officials of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) were able to later divert traffic through Ipetu Ijesa to ease the gridlock.
While many unknown persons lost their lives, some were also injured.
