On Saturday, October 15, 2022, at around 4 o’clock, a woman’s automobile collided with a tricycle carrying passengers toward Agege on Iju-Ishaga Road.
All of the passengers, including an elderly woman, perished, according to a Punch story, while the trike rider was hurt and taken to the hospital almost away.
Mayokun Oluwadara, an eyewitness, reported that commuters had yelled at the driver to slow down.
“A woman was traveling at high speed in a personal vehicle. She was being yelled at to slow down. The neighborhood is frequently congested with traffic and people. Unfortunately, the woman decided to rush through because the road was clear that day. He described how she struck the trike from behind.
Oluwadara claimed that good Samaritans hurried the young girl and the pregnant woman to the hospital in the hopes that they would be saved.
“Due to the pregnancy and the girl’s young age, people were quite picky about the pregnant woman and the small girl. They were taken out right away. Some others said that the girl and the pregnant woman might still be breathing. However, several of us noticed that they were completely still, so we knew they were dead, he continued.
Further information revealed that after the collision, the female driver rushed off in the direction of the Agege Underbridge.
Residents reportedly told nearby park managers to tell the automobile to halt. At the Agege Underbridge, she was eventually apprehended and given to the police.
Benjamin Hundeyin, a spokesman for the Lagos State Police Command, acknowledged the occurrence but said that the police have a record of one passenger who passed away immediately.
