The
survivor simply identified as Titilayo, revealed that they begged the
driver of the bus to wait for the train to pass, but he refused.
Speaking to journalists, she said;
“The
incident happened around 7.15am. When we got to the intersection at PWD
in Ikeja, the driver continued driving. Passengers inside the bus,
including myself, begged him to wait for the train to pass before
crossing, but he didn’t listen.
“Midway, just
before he could finish crossing the rail tracks, the accident happened.
Many of us were rushed here, while five others were taken to Gbagada
General Hospital.”
