This afternoon, around midday, the container fell on Sagamu/Benin expressway at Ilishan, very close to Sagamu junction, Ogun State. It crushed a fully loaded commuter bus ( pictured above ), killing all occupants. The occupants of
the bus were mainly students of Olabisi Onabanjo Umiversity, OOU, Ago Iwoye, who were on their way to Lagos.
An eyewitness, Commander Tommy Hamzat, the Commander of the TRACE, Ijebu Command, said the truck driver was driving against traffic and the bus driver collided with it. He said he hurriedly parked his car, ran to the scene to see if the passengers could be rescued but unfortunately all the occupants were dead including the driver. Their remains have been taken to the mortuary at the Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital, OOUTH, Sagamu….. R.I.P to them…..
