A few days after a hit-and-run driver struck an unidentified woman to death on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, a similar tragic incident occurred as an unknown female pedestrian was allegedly killed by a driver along the Ijebu-Ijesha road.
The Ogun State Police Command spokesperson, Omolola Odutola, confirmed to PUNCH Metro on Saturday that the woman died instantly following the incident on November 21, 2024.
While the deceased lay lifeless in the middle of the motorway, PUNCH Metro learnt that passing vehicles continued to run over her body, leaving it unrecognisable.
Speaking about the pedestrian’s death, Odutola stated that police operatives from the Obalende Division had reached out to health officers from the Odogbolu Local Government Council to arrange for the deceased’s burial.
Odutola stated, “Our Obalende Division received a report of a hit-and-run incident. Upon visiting the scene, the police found that the victim was a female.
“They also found that the body had been repeatedly crushed by passing vehicles. Local government officials have been contacted to arrange for the burial.
This incident occurred just days after the death of a female passenger in similar circumstances, while other passengers narrowly escaped with their lives.
The accident, which occurred around 6:17 p.m. on Wednesday, involved a fully loaded Toyota Hiace bus with registration number BOJ716XF and an unidentified truck.
The passenger bus from Lagos State to Ibadan reportedly collided with the unidentified truck, which had entered the motorway at high speed from a nearby trailer park without properly checking for oncoming traffic.
