A chaotic scene unfolded at Ladipo bus stop in Lagos on Monday after a Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASMA) official allegedly dragged the steering wheel of a commercial driver, leading to a severe accident.
The incident, which caused a significant stir among onlookers, reportedly left the driver unconscious at the scene.
Eyewitnesses who posted the video claim that the altercation began when the LASMA officer attempted to stop the driver for an alleged traffic violation.
