On Wednesday afternoon a truck rammed into a
school building in Itori, Ewekoro Local Government Area of Ogun State,
killing no fewer than 5 students, while 50 vehicles were damaged.
An eyewitness, who was part of the rescue team before the arrival of officers of Federal Road Safety Commission, FRSC, says the accident involves students of Itori Comprehensive High School. The students had just closed for the day and were heading for their homes when the truck rammed into them. The truck was said to be coming from Abeokuta, the state capital, when it veered off the median and ran into the students. Confirming the incident, Itori Sector Commander of FRSC, Mr. Fatai Bakare, however, said only five students were confirmed dead.
