Train Crushes Man To Death In Lagos by NaijaCover(op): 5:09am On Aug 27, 2024
A Yet-To-Be-Identified Adult Male has been crushed to death by a moving train in the Mushin area of Lagos State.

The incident was said to have occurred around 6 pm on Monday while the deceased was walking along the Cappa railway tracks.

The Lagos State Emergency Management Agency in a statement signed by its spokesman, Nosa Okunbor, said the victim was found dead at the scene with severe injuries sustained from the collision.

Okubor added that the man was confirmed to have died instantly due to the impact of the crash.

The statement read, “In response to distress alert on the train accident along the railway line opposite the LASEMA Response Base in Cappa about 6 pm, the Agency activated its Eagle Response Team.

Upon arrival at the scene of the incident, an adult male walking along the railway track was found dead after being hit by an oncoming train

“Further investigations conducted by the LRT revealed that the yet-to-be-identified, half-dressed adult male died immediately on the railway tracks due to the impact of the collision.”

Okunbor stated the remains of the deceased had been bagged by the agency’s response team while awaiting the arrival of the State Environmental Health Monitoring Unit officials for onward transit to the morgue.

What a pity.
So sad.
Many people are living corpse, due to the harsh condition of living and surviving under this regime.
Might have been absent minded not to have heard the sound of a coming train.
May his soul RIP

the country is really dealing with you, because I see no connection between your statement and the topic

You didn't not even bother to know if there's a flyover there or not

So when a caterpillar hit truck it's due to hardship not safety caution 😏😏
Re: Train Crushes Man To Death In Lagos by calabaman(m): 6:04am On Aug 27, 2024
Wondering what he was doing on the train tracks.

= Suicide
= Or walking on it with earpiece listening to naija Jaga.
= Or high on drugs as the news report states.

Nonetheless, RIP to the dead.

What sadnews to wake up to.

Good to see sanwo trying to cover all rail tracks. KAI should start packing this pple who stay along railways.

I was enjoying one sweet gbedu last year with my airpod along Ikeja rail. Even if u be mumu u should know when a train is coming. People always shift from far.. except if the man blind and nobody knows. Even with ears busy.. you don't just walk without looking around.
Re: Train Crushes Man To Death In Lagos by dfrost: 6:06am On Aug 27, 2024
Hmm...

Absent-minded?
Blocked hearing due to headset?
Impaired hearing?

No one to shout at him? Gosh!

Cappa is busy with people around, what now happened?

When death calls you have no choice but to obey!

Regardless of how it happened, it was simply his time to die otherwise he would have survived!

He might have left the rail tracks by spacing himself a bit from the tracks thinking train is not that fat to hit him by the side
Re: Train Crushes Man To Death In Lagos by engrjosefz(m): 6:49am On Aug 27, 2024
I don't even understand the type of trains we have in Nigeria... They have no brakes... Many accidents caused by trains... Or the drivers are not well trained?
