About two weeks after a truck killed a sachet water seller and her child in Oshodi, a Bus Rapid Transit bus has killed another woman in Lagos.
The accident occurred on Ikorodu Road on Sunday, with ‘The Punch’ reporting that the woman was trying to cross the road.
The paper quoted an eyewitness as saying, “She first got onto the BRT lane before crossing the rest of the highway, but an oncoming BRT bus knocked her down. My guess is that the driver did not see her run onto the lane because after he had knocked her down, he still ran over her.
“The driver ran away immediately he realised what he had done. There is a pedestrian bridge around where the accident occurred. The victim appeared pregnant, maybe that explains why she could not use the bridge.”
