albino girl riding on the back of a bike along Kudirat Abiola way the
Ikeja/Oregun/Ojota axis of Lagos and injuring two others at Ojota while
attempting to escape, driving even more recklessly.
The tragedy hit around 12.35pm as a yellow commuter bus was driving against the one-way traffic along Kudirat Abiola way, just opposite the lane to activists on a march to commemorate the death of prominent civil rights lawyer, Gani Fawehinmi, today.
The activists had begun their march from under the popular bridge along Obafemi Awolowo way in Ikeja with five police vans watching them closely.
The train was going smoothly before the bus suddenly ran into some motorbikes and pedestrians on Kudirat Abiola way near the Olusosun garbage dump. The albino woman was killed in the accident.
The strong collision threw the woman against the culvert, instantly breaking her right leg and causing a crack on her skull, she died some thirty minutes later according to the police.
The activists ended the procession to engage in a furious chase to catch up with the hit-and-run driver riding on the back of several bikes at Ojota the road seemed closed to traffic but the commercial driver in his haste to escape hit two other persons made an u-turn towards Alausa where he was finally rounded up by the comrades.
The killer driver has been apprehended and detained at the Alausa Police Station.
