According to an eyewitness, the tragic accident occurred when the victim alighted from a bus on top of Obalende bridge and dashed across the road without looking.

According to a motorist, Solomon Ikhide, “dropping picking up of passengers by bus drivers has been causing fatal accidents on the bridge daily.”
