Akinbiyi added that the driver lost control as the bus somersaulted several times.
He said no fewer than 10 persons sustained varying degrees of injuries aside from the two women that lost their lives. He said, “According to one of the survivors, the driver was speeding and was as well using his cellphone while driving at a bend. He lost control and the bus somersaulted several times.
“The injured victims were rescued to Hope Hospital, Adigbe, before our arrival. The dead bodies have been deposited at the Ijaye morgue.“The occupants in the bus were nurses who were all heading to a party to honour the matron in one of the hospitals in Abeokuta.“While TRACE Corps commiserates with the family of the victims, motorists are again enjoined to avoid over speeding, especially during the rain, as well as the use of mobile phone, due to its distraction and attendant consequences”.
