The victims were said to have been conveying the corpse from Ejigbo to Ikotun in a funeral convoy comprising three commercial minibuses and a Toyota Space Bus.

 

An eyewitness, Foluke who confirmed the incident said the remaining people rushed to help the victims and secure the coffin.

She said,

Some buses were picking up passengers on the layby when a minibus suddenly crashed into another one. The impact caused some of them to fall off the vehicle, and they got injured.

 

At first, we thought it was an accident between two buses that had passengers inside them.

 

“It was when we moved close that we discovered that they were heading for burial when we saw a corpse inside one of them. The occupants were also seriously injured.”

 

Also confirming the incident, the driver of the bus noted that the bus has earlier showed signs of fault, but the journey was continued after a minor fix.

He said,

On our way coming from Ejigbo, the bus developed a fault midway and started moving slowly. It later started working normally again, and while we approached Idimu to connect to Ikotun, I discovered that the brake was no longer responding. That was how I lost control and crashed the bus ahead of me. I wasn’t expecting this terrible incident today

 

The injured victims wer taken to a nearby hospital for medical attention, while the corpse was taken to a nearby hospital for the journey to continue.
