Confusion As BRT Bus Bursts Into Flames

There was confusion at Agric bus-stop, in the Ikorodu area of Lagos after a Bus Rapid Transit BRT went up in flames.

This however caused a pandemonium as road users and commuters scampered for safety so as not to be a victim.

According to Vanguard, an eyewitness said, ‘Street urchings popularly called ‘area boys’, stopped passers-by from putting out the fire as the excuse gathered was that they were angry because of what happened to the 22-year-old fashion designer, Ayanwole Oluwabimise, who was found dead in Lagos after boarding a Bus Rapid Transit, BRT, bus heading to Oshodi from Chevron bus stop, Lekki.”

The report also states that no life was lost as all passengers alighted before it caught fire.

It would be recalled that body of Bamise who got missing after boarding BRT bus from Ajah was reportedly found with some body parts missing on Monday.

Bamise got missing while returning to Ota from Ajah on February 26 when she boarded a BRT bus with number 240257 going to Oshodi about 7 pm at Chevron Bus-Stop.

The victim, who worked as a fashion designer in Ajah spent her weekends in Ota, Ogun State, with her sister, had sent some voice notes to a friend when she sensed danger.
