A middle-aged man was crushed to death by a speeding
Danfo bus while trying to cross the ever-busy Ikorodu
expressway at Ojota area of Lagos over the week.
Eyewitnesses claimed that the deceased who died on the
spot, had just arrived Lagos from Ibadan with his wife.
According to eye witness account, the couple had
shunned the pedestrian bridge and had attempted
crossing the road when he got hit by an incoming
vehicle and had his head broken.
It was gathered that the bus driver who fled, was "fleeing
from Lagos State Traffic Management Agency, LASTMA
officials" for plying a BRT lane, a restricted lane not
meant for commuter bus drivers."
"The man's wife thought her husband was by her side, it
was after hearing the big bang that she looked back and
saw him lying on the road with blood gushing out of his
broken head." a female sympathizer disclosed.
