It was a case of different strokes for different folks on Tuesday in Abuja, the nation’s capital, as residents treated themselves to free beers when a truck loaded with beer fell over a few meters away from the popular Berger roundabout.
The incident occurred at about 4 pm along Mabushi and Berger expressway when the truck veered off the road after the driver lost control.
Shortly after the accident, passersby and motorists swarmed the scene, helping themselves to bottles of beer as they surrounded the overturned truck.
The incident also drew the attention of some Abuja ‘Big Boys’ with exotic cars and SUVs, who hurriedly pulled over to join in the unexpected ‘feast’.
The scene almost turned into a carnival as dispatch riders, Bolt and Uber drivers temporarily suspended their trips to partake in the beer bonanza. Many residents were seen going home with crates of beer, while some brought buckets to fill up.
TotalTrendsToday gathered that the management of the beer company had instructed the driver to allow people to drink the content to avoid wastage.
Meanwhile, some road safety officers were on standby to tow the truck away. Fortunately, no lives were lost in the incident.
