“Nothing at all was placed on the highway except for the concrete boulders and the red and white tape, which is mostly invisible at night.” RoadAccident HitechBarrier Lagos AirportRoad Accident Nigeria
Bus Stop, by Hitech Construction Company, the firm which handled the Airport Road rehabilitation and expansion commissioned last year by President Muhammadu Buhari.
An eyewitness, who was driving behind the car, Abiodun Alabi, said: “I am still in shock. It was like a horror movie. Who would have thought that a new curb would be placed in the middle of the road by the construction company without a warning sign few metres away or an amber light to alert motorists of the obstruction.
When The Guardian visited the scene on Friday afternoon, workers of the construction firm, also handling the ongoing Apapa-Oshodi expressway reconstruction, were seen dismantling the barrier and moving the curbs into a truck. When asked what was intended to be done to the road that has been commissioned for use more than a year ago, they declined to give a response, saying they were only acting on instructions.
