IT was a pathetic sight yesterday at Eleyele in Ibadan North West Local Government area of Ibadan when an articulated lorry crushed about five persons.
.
One young lady was crushed beyond recognition while four other persons sustained serious injuries.
.
The accident happened around 12:25pm some metres away from Eleyele roundabout.
.
The truck which was marked XA 178 BDG loaded more than one hundred bags of cement and was coming from Dugbe end before the accident happened.
.
When the driver, who looked like a 23 year old man could not control the truck, it ran into an 18 seater commercial bus, some motorcyclists and other passersby.
.
After crushing the victims, it headed to another story building by the road side. But the locked iron gate of the house prevented it from going inside the building.
This is sad news I have to say.
Not a good one I must say.
May their soul rest in perfect peace!
