This horrible accident happened
yesterday Monday Sept. 23rd along the
Alaka/Costain crossover bridge in
Surulere. The driver of one of the buses in
the state mass transit scheme lost control
of his bus and crashed into a soldier riding
a motorcyle on the express. The yet-to-be
identified soldier was cut almost into two
by the bus. (Too graphic...but will show you
just one pic).
According to a source who witnessed the
accident, the driver was on top speed
when he lost control of the vehicle as he
approached a bad spot on the dilapidated
bridge. The driver, while trying to avoid
the bad spot, swerved to the left pinning
the soldier on the railing of the bridge.
The bus dragged the soldier for a bit and
cut through his bowel.
Eyewitnesses said the soldier, who died on
the spot, was carrying a woman on the
back seat of the motorcycle, and was
flung away from the impact of the
collision. She survived the crash but is in a
critical condition in the hospital. The driver
of the bus fled the scene after seeing the
extent of the damage and so did the
passengers of the bus a few minutes
later, fearing attack from soldiers.
