According to Okpe, the lone crash which involved a Mazda bus marked BDG993YG occurred at about 10:45 am on Sunday.

She added that a total number of 22 persons, comprising of seven male and eight female adults, four male children and three female children, were involved in the crash, out of which seven died while 14 others were injured.

She blamed the crash on “excessive speed and brake failure which led to loss of control.”

She said, “The injured victims have been taken to Lagos State Accident Emergency Center, Ojota while the corpses were deposited at Olabisi Onabajo University Teaching Hospital morgue Sagamu.”
