Several passengers have reportedly been feared dead after a bus conveying travelers from Abeokuta, Ogun State, to Lagos crashed in Abule Egba, Lagos.
According to reports, the accident occurred early this morning, April 3, while people were on their way to work.
Some eyewitnesses said the bus driver and a passenger were having an argument and this caused the driver to lose concentration, thereby losing control of the vehicle.
A Twitter user who was standing at the scene of the accident explained that she barely escaped being crushed by the bus.
She tweeted: “A bus carrying passengers from Abeokuta somersaulted and crashed into the brt fence The bus turned over. Driver bleeding People are badly injured I was standing there, I was by the wall a minute ago.”
She added: “Pleaseeeee ambulanceeeee. Abulegba brt. People are dyinggg.”
