While there were no lives lost, the driver reportedly broke his hand and has since been rushed to Plateau State Specialist Hospital.
Eyewitnesses told our correspondent Blessing Danboyi that the truck, bound for Adamawa state from Kogi State, reportedly crashed into the Bluewhales motor Park premises, beside the National Library Roundabout in Jos.
One of the conductors of the truck, Mr. Khalid Mohammad says the accident occurred when a bike man attempted to overtake the truck, causing the driver to suddenly lose control.
According to him, an unknown group of persons invaded the premises, carting away about twenty-seven bags of cement, but two bags were fortunately retrieved, and one suspect apprehended with the help of security operatives.
