However, the fire has been doused by officers of the Lagos State Fire Service.
The incident has caused a traffic pile-up on the expressway, as motorists are seeking other routes to maneuver their way out of the gridlock.
The Otedola bridge has been a spot of collisions and fire outbreaks, with what could be considered the deadliest occurring in June 2018.
