Chai!Sunny Okosun…which way Nigeria is heading to?
RIP the evil has sucked their blood
No dear.. Bus driver should hold responsible, this transporter should hire responsible drivers. Most of this drivers are not mentally stable enough to convey innocent Nigerians to one destination. Nigerian road safety should stop issuing illegal drivers license.
So sad,its a pity RIP
I remember drinking paraga with somebody those days at the motor park who later turned out to be our driver to Lagos from Benin.(My God he was drunk). I wrestled the steering with him until he stepped his leg on the brake just opposite Uniben. I alighted from the bus and dragged him down before students and local people helped out.
I would not be writing this today because he would have killed all 18 passengers on the bus.
This drivers drink and drive. They think to be agile and active is to sip ogogoro before their journey which actually affects their judgements and makes them sleepy while driving.
The engineer that built the bridge should be arrested. How could he, buidt a bridge on same level with the balustrastre and the balustratre does not look strong to resist heavy load. If the garde-de-corp were solid the vehicle wouldn,t have sumersaulted.
