Two people, including a minor, were feared dead this evening in an auto accident involving a lone drunk driver. Our correspondent saw at least two dead bodies being removed from the cite of the accident that took place 7pm this evening in the Ikotun area of Lagos State.

Other eye witnesses told our correspondent that the drunk driver was in a high speed and blindly rammed into a retinue of road side hawkers and haggling market women in the usually boisterous Lagos suburb. 'The driver was drunk. He was in a state of drunken stupor. He came out of the vehicle smelling like someone drenched in a pool of beer', one eye witness told IrohinOodua this evening. Our correspondent could not ascertain the names of the victims as at the time of going to the press. Many wailing sympathizers thronged the scene of the wreckage blaming the drunk driver for the mayhem. Police also did not arrive at the scene on time to save lives.
