The Wife of the Kwara State Governor, Mrs Omolewa
Ahmed, has denied a report by an online blog(not
informng.com), linking her convoy with a traffic
accident in Lagos last week in which two people
allegedly died.

Speaking through Dr. Femi Akorede, spokesperson to
the State Governor, Mrs Ahmed disclaimed any
involvement with the reported accident and
challenged the publishers to produce the Police report
linking her or her convoy with the incident.

“I have been reliably briefed by several people in
the convoy including the wife of the Governor and the
facts indicate that Mrs Ahmed’s convoy narrowly
escaped from the accident rather than causing it. On
the said day, Mrs Ahmed was returning from visiting
someone in hospital when her convoy narrowly escaped being hit by a tipper-truck, having left the
scene of the accident seconds earlier by choice of
providence. On noticing the out-of-control tipper truck
racing towards them, the remaining drivers quickly
left the junction and joined the convoy. The reported
accident, tragic as it is, therefore had nothing to do with Mrs Ahmed or her convoy. However, any loss of
life is tragic and sad no matter the cause.

“Furthermore, Mrs Ahmed was unaware of what
happened until she got to Ilorin and was told about the
near-mishap. As a kind-hearted person, she will have
offered assistance if she had been aware of the
incident at the time. We also only got an inkling of the
alleged casualty from the accident following a newspaper report the following day which however
did not mention her or her convoy”, said Akorede

“It is also untrue that the tipper truck in question
reportedly ran into by-standers in a bid to avoid a
collision with Mrs Ahmed’s convoy. Neither is it true
that the convoy was driving on the wrong side of the
road. All drivers in the convoy have a standing order
to avoid over-speeding and to always comply with traffic rules.

Liar!!! All we need to confirm is that your convoy was the convoy involved ....

no matter how dey try to cover it up. The fact still remain that her convoy was invovle in the accident.

But wait oh. Since when governor wife get office

akpomeme: Liar!!! All we need to confirm is that your convoy was the convoy involved ....

This report actually confirmed it is her convoy! But my own question is: Lagos Ibadan express way suppose to be a dual carriage way, the express way is normally separated by a huge gap. If these are true and her convoy is on the right side of the road, how come then the truck is racing towards them and the drivers in her convoy had to join others on the other side( this again shows that some of the drivers in the convoy were on the wrong side of the road!)?

1) It was Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway.

2) The allegation was that her convoy suddenly came out from a side street onto the expressway. Usually, cars from the side street should wait for cars on the expressway, but it was alleged that the security cars suddenly came out of the side street and attempted to take over the expressway. The trailer was on the expressway and had to swerve to avoid hitting the security cars.

that fact that she said she did not know of the accident till she got to ilorin shows she is ignorant.

And I think her convoy is actually the cause of the accident
