How A Bus Driver Allegedly Killed An 'okada Rider' by cubicc: 4:28pm On Aug 19, 2015 |
It was reported that the suspect allegedly
drove carelessly and hit the bike rider
identified as Musa on a busy road in the
Alakuko area of Lagos state, which led to the
bike rider sustaining injuries and later caused
his death.
A police source stated that the driver fled
after hitting the bike rider but he was later
apprehended and handed over to the police by
a group of commercial bus riders popularly
called okada after they trailed him for days.
The source said: “The okada rider and the bus
driver were heading at opposite directions when
the bus hit the okada and caused him to crash.
The bus driver did not stop despite the shouts
from residents and other motorists that he
had hit somebody .
“Sympathizers however came to the rescue of
the victim and they rushed him to the hospital.
Other ‘Okada-riders’ trailed the bus driver but
he abandoned his vehicle and went into hiding.”
According to the police source, the suspect
blamed the deceased for the accident.
He said: “It was the okada man that drove
roughly and hit himself against my vehicle
from the rear. He (okada rider) was trying to
navigate his way from a tight and busy angle
of the road but he could not control the bike
and he fell and hit his head against my bus. I
fled because I did not want the angry mob to
lynch me”. |
