One of the survivors of the crash between a Lagos State government staff bus (BRT) and a moving train recounted the events leading up to the accident.
According to Titilayo, they pleaded with the bus driver to pause and let the train go by, but he declined which led to the crash in the Shogunle area of Ikeja on March 9.
In the survivor’s words;
“The incident happened around 7.15am. When we got to the intersection at PWD in Ikeja, the driver continued driving. Passengers inside the bus, including myself, begged him to wait for the train to pass before crossing, but he didn’t listen.
“Midway, just before he could finish crossing the rail tracks, the accident happened. Many of us were rushed here, while five others were taken to Gbagada General Hospital.”
