Some residents of Abuja treated themselves to a free drink when a truck loaded with beer fell over a stone’s throw from the popular Berger roundabout.
The incident happened about 4 pm on Mabushi and Berger expressways.
The truck veered off the road as the driver lost control.
Shortly after the accident, some passersby and motorists were seen helping themselves with bottles of beer as they surrounded the truck.
The incident also attracted the attention of some Abuja “Big Boys” with exotic cars and SUVs as they hurriedly pulled over and joined in the “wining”.
The scene was almost turned into a carnival as dispatch riders, Bolt and Uber drivers temporarily suspended their trips to partake in it.
Many residents were seen going home with crates of beer while others brought buckets and filled them up.
A report by SaharaReporters said that the management of the company had ordered the driver to allow people to drink the content to avoid waste.
Meanwhile, some road safety officers were on standby to tow the truck away.
