One other aspect is that the man, the wife and their son may have been sitting at the back and with our culture in Nigeria where the back seat occupants dont usually wear their seat belts. This could have responsible for several thrown arround of the back seat occupants resulting to eventual death. I think FRSC should start enforcing the seat belt at the back as well. RIP to the deads and may God console the reamining of the families. |

In addition, I would like to add the following 1. Encourage the use of seat belts ....only God can tell if the late minister or his family members had theirs on. The driver and PA survived most likely due to the seat belts and airbags in front 2. FRSC ensure a strict and thorough auditing of drivers in this country for their knowledge of driving under pressure or extreme condition. 3. FRSC should endeavor to regulate and enforce speed limits in this country 4. FRSC should be stationed on most roads to test for drivers driving under the influence (Especially on Lekki Axis) no weekend passes without one or two vehicles involved in some form of accidents.

My brother what we have in Nigeria is criminal neglect.i work in ibadan and live in Lagos.u won't believe I don turn James bond for road.i just lost two firestone tyres due massive port holes on that road.what am saying is that we should not allow this people take us for a ride anymore,on oba acran road there is a massive port hole in the middle of the road and you have a govt checking people's. Papers and slaming them with fines of 60,000 naira.the pathetic thing on Lagos ibadan is that u have FRSC standing not far from that portion.we are in serious mess man.i weep for my country. 1 Like |

pee777: Apart from the idea of the devil I and you are saying the same thing. If you read my post again you'll understand I didn't say God is a killer. What I meant was that men do evil (like diverting the commonwealth meant for roads) and when their actions result to disaster they attribute it to God's will. Circa; the Muslims. |

cramjones: @CramJones, FRSC does not have an accident Investigation Bureau, if they did, the best in the world will not come up with the tire claptrap in less than 24hrs. Do you have any idea how long it takes to reproduce an accident scene? yet you bought the nonsense spewed by FRSC who perhaps drew the conclusion based on a burst tire on site. A roll over vehicle is exposed to sharp debris that can puncture the tire, it doesn't mean that a burst tire caused the accident. Mere looking at the pictures, the curtain side airbag deployed from the secondary node which is a fail safe for SRS systems the only thing that would cause that is that some occupants were not wearing seat belts, Ocholi's lifeless body in the bush support that theory. Else he would be strapped to his seat inside with perhaps major neck injuries due to the roof cave in. It is unclear what caused the accident should be the right narrative, the so called FRSC has neither the expertize nor resources to determine the cause of an accident in such short notice. Speed should be the first culprit in this case. People like you make the outside world think Nigerians are goats. |

let us be real.our driving habit in Nigerian is very bad and being mindful of poor conditions of Nigerian roads and the fact that in case of emergencies help is not near,why not control and reduce your speed especially when driving jeeps.jeeps because of high clearance from the ground has a high probability of somersaulting when faced with a challenge. Again,if blessings are real,curses are also real and we need constantly do a re examination of our acts and actions.learnt the guy was chairman of a quasi judicial body,legal practitioners disciplinary committee,what his antecedents were in that role i would not know. There is no effective prayer for the dead,may this loss streghtns those they left behind and my it also strengthen their resolve to learn the one thing that is needful in this life and do it. i believe like every actor,they have played their part and quit the state and like awo said"weep not for me,weep for yourself" |

In addition @ OP, the use of seat belts is not something a lot of our big men practice when they drive those their SUVs. As educated and exposed as many of our Nigerian "ogas" are, they do not appreciate the importance of being strapped to their seats as an additional safety measure. Let's not forget the role of Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) in allowing the importation of substandard tyres into the country. Many have died as a result of these tyres. If you want to begin to analyse the challenges bedevilling different sectors of our society, you'll be sad. A very painful loss for the family. May God comfort those left behind. |

We can reduce the number of accidents on our roads by safety practices and infrastructural development. However instead of doing that we keep preaching that accidents happen all over the world. In Nigeria,we make excuses and practically do nothing. RIP Ocholis. |

I paray God give d family d strenght to bear this horror and give them reasons to smile again. May the dead find peace with dia maker and have a sweet rest. 2 majors things that cause this accident to lead to fatality is high speed and d inability of the driver to stop d SUV after a burst tire. We don't learnt d latter in driving school experice and common sense will teach you that . People panic after a burst cause of the noise d vibration and d car going wrong direction any 1 second action taking by d driver here determins their survival hoping d speed is not out of this world. Average drivers don't know wat to do after a burst dat include most government and private drivers no re training once u have license that's d end. You there driving tell me what you will do to stop a car on a top speed with a burst tire with out fatality or minimal crash. Again may d dead find peace |

The health sector probably suffers the worst neglect of all the sectors in Nigeria. In my hospital, a general hospital for that matter, we don't have an ambulance and I've been complaining from the first day I was posted to this hospital but nothing has been done. Just last night, I had to carry patients in my car to a tertiary hospital, two motorcycles had head on collision with two of sustaining severe head injuries, since my hospital doesn't have the necessary facilities to manage such cases, I had to refer them after stabilisation but it took these people eternity to get a vehicle so I had no choice than to transport them in my own car leaving the hospital with no doctor for the period of my to and fro. Sometimes I get frustrated working under such conditions, patients who had no reason to die have died due to the poor state of most of these hospitals and I've repeatedly asked myself, what is the value of human life in Nigeria? |

jpphilips: Every accident in Nigeria must be attributed to burst tire ..what the he'll is a burst tire . That SUV clearly lost control due to something we else and not the usual FRSC narrative of burst tire |

If post is true, do not most of these leaders loot the money that was supposed to be used to do these roads and the other things but will be running to Dubai for holidays and other foreign countries for medical treatment, to the countries of those who did their own places well after they have destroyed their country for others and for themselves too. Someone actually said he who points a finger at another person, the remaining four are pointed to himself. Yoruba also says, 'do not throw a stone in the market for it could actually hit a family member of yours'. He who in the dark defecate on the road, many will curse him in the day. They that looted the common wealth of all that is meant for the poor, aged, mad people, handicaps, children, and so on, shall never know peace unless they turn from their evil ways and return all they looted. There is no peace for the wicked. Will not God judge every evil doers unless for those who turn from their evil ways |
