Speeding Lagos Agency Truck Runs Over Leg Of 74-year-old Retiree, Victim Abandoned At Hospital As Family Spends Over N3million On Treatment | Sahara Reporters

A 74-year-old retired federal civil servant, Mr Oluyemisi Orisabiyi, is currently experiencing excruciating pains after a speeding truck belonging to the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps, knocked him down, ran over and broke his left leg on October 23, 2021, in the Iyana Ipaja area of the state.

People around the scene managed to stop the vehicle and forced the KAI officials to rush the 74-year-old man to a hospital for urgent medical attention. Immediately made to undergo a surgical procedure to fix his broken tibia, the man spent the next 13 weeks at the hospital, enduring pain and psychological trauma of all kinds – it was a terrible time for Orisabiyi and his family members.

“Despite a letter written to the management of the agency by the medical director of Triumph Medical Centre informing them about the severity of my condition and asking them for financial support towards my treatment, they did not respond despite acknowledging receiving the letter. “The management of the agency cannot pretend not to know about my predicament, they have just deliberately abandoned me to suffer and bear the financial implication of the medical treatment. It is very sad on their part for behaving in such a manner,” the victim said.
