There was a serious pandemonium on Ajah Road in Lagos this morning. Area boys and passers-by clashed with policemen after a trailer crushed five students as they crossed the road. The sad incident happened close to Ikota Primary School and the dead pupils must have been making their way to the school when they were killed. The tanker driver abandoned his truck and escaped.
The people protesting insisted that they wouldn't leave the area until Governor Fashola showed up. They blamed the gruesome accident on the lack of a pedestrian bridge in the area. The two express lanes have been blocked by the angry protesters and this caused heavy traffic in the area.
Poor kids!
The incident caused a lot of traffic. Was on a spot for almost 4hrs
