A 500-level student of the Federal University of Health Sciences, Azare, Rebecca Kambai, has been killed in a hit-and-run accident along the Bauchi-Jos Road in Bauchi.

The 19-Year-Old died on Tuesday evening after a Sharon commercial bus allegedly rammed into the motorcycle she was riding near the Police Officers’ Mess before fleeing the scene.

A family source told DAILYPOST that the undergraduate had recently returned home for the holidays but realised she had left some personal belongings in school.

The source said Rebecca arranged for friends to send the items through a commercial driver travelling to Bauchi. When the driver arrived at the Bauchi motor park near Awala Hotel, he contacted her to collect the package.

Her brother reportedly took her to the park on a motorcycle. After collecting the items, they were heading home when the crash occurred.

According to the source, as they approached the Police Officers’ Mess and were about to turn into the New GRA area, the Sharon bus hit the motorcycle and sped off.

Rebecca was thrown onto the road and suffered severe head injuries, including a fractured skull. She was pronounced dead at the scene, while her brother sustained injuries.

A First Information Report obtained from the Federal Road Safety Corps, Bauchi Sector Command, showed that the crash occurred at about 5:15 pm on July 14, 2026, and was reported five minutes later.

The report stated that FRSC personnel arrived at the scene at about 5:30 p.m., recording a response time of 10 minutes.

It identified the motorcycle involved as a Jincheng motorcycle with registration number TFB-38-QB, used for private purposes.

The FRSC said two adults, a male and a female, were involved in the crash. The male sustained injuries, while the female was confirmed dead.

Items recovered from the scene included the motorcycle, a women’s hair stretcher and a pair of shoes.

The injured victim was evacuated to the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital for treatment, while Rebecca’s body was deposited at the hospital’s mortuary.

The driver of the Sharon bus reportedly fled the scene immediately after the crash and had yet to be identified as of the time of filing this report. Efforts to trace and apprehend the suspect are ongoing.

How can a 19-year-old student be in 500 level? If they were unsure about the age, they could have simply left it out instead of including information that raises questions.

How are we sure this is not fake news

cut and join fake stories. It has become an epidemic

Last time I saw her in school full of life and laughing, who could have thought it was going to be the last time we'll see. Rest on Becca.

Living in and surviving Nigeria should be a Netflix series.

You are saying this because you don't know her personally or the school. So tell me what level will someone who started the school 2021 as the pioneer set of the school should be by now.

Pronounced dead indeed - probably nobody even checked anything. No life saving equipment nor personnel. All the money has been used for Islamic pilgrimage to mecca.

This nairaland is getting worst,the same suppression of dissent that we always accused authority of is very much prevalent here. I have been banned twice within the last 24 hours because of comments that doesn't worth being banned, whereas some other comments are worst yet it was allowed.

Whosoever doing this should stop.

She can be in whatever level she's supposed to be, it's her age that brought the question.
They're telling us she entered the university at 14. It's possible but very rare
