avoid a recurrence .
A statement by its Publicity Secretary , Joe Igbokwe ,
said : “ We deeply sympathise with the victims of the
Iyana Ipaja and Idimu incidents . We feel their pain and
see their loss as a loss to Lagos.
“ We are alarmed that Lagos witnessed two horrific
accidents in a space of a few days and we believe
something deliberate must be done by both the
government and the tanker drivers to prevent a
recurrence .
“ We applaud Governor Akinwunmi Ambode for his quick
and prompt response to the incidents but we feel that
the state cannot continue to experience these
tragedies .
“ We are happy that in both incidences, no life was lost
but we regret that several properties were destroyed .
“ Lagos APC calls for stricter regulation of heavy duty
vehicles plying Lagos streets , in view of the recurring
cases of tanker accidents in Lagos. ”
