A yet-to-be-identified driver on Monday hit two female siblings returning from school along the Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway.

According to Lagos Police spokesman Benjamin Hundeyin, the driver was speeding on the BRT lane when he hit the siblings at Ogundare bus stop.

Hundeyin said, “On Monday, February 24, 2025, at about 1535hrs, a yet-to-be-identified driver, while plying the BRT lane at high speed at Ogundare bus stop along the Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway, hit two female pedestrians, siblings aged 12 and 15, on their way back from school.

“The accident victims sustained severe injuries and were quickly evacuated to Orile Agege General Hospital for treatment. Unfortunately, the 12-year-old passed away while receiving treatment, while the other victim was later transferred to Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) for further care.”

Hundeyin urged road users to comply with traffic rules, observe speed limits, and practice safe driving.

The Lagos State Police Commissioner, CP Olohundare M. Jimoh, commiserated with the bereaved family and emphasized the command’s commitment to ensuring that justice is served.
