At least 10 students of Olabisi Onabanjo
University Ogun state lost their lives after a
container on a truck fell on the commuter bus
they were traveling in, crushing all the pa
$$engers and the bus driver to death. This
happened along the Sagamu/Benin expressway
at Ilishan, very close to Sagamu junction at
about 12noon today June 26th. The students
were on their way to Lagos when the accident
happened.
An eyewitness said the driver of the truck drove
against traffic which caused the head on
collision with the commuter bus
“I was coming from Sagamu side and saw the
accident. I had to hurriedly park my car, run to
the scene to see if the pa$$engers could be
rescued but unfortunately all the occupants
were dead including the driver. The bus was
facing Lagos, but I dont know where it was
coming from. The driver of the truck carrying an
empty container was coming from Sagamu axis
but was driving against traffic and that resulted
in the collision, which eventually claimed the
lives of the innocent people” the eye witness
said.
The remains of the victims have been deposited
at the Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching
Hospital, OOUTH, Sagamu.
