On Saturday, October 26th, a fast-moving BMW car crushed four children of the same parents to death in Edo State.
It was gathered that the children were knocked down while crossing
the busy Uselu/Lagos Expressway, close to the traditional ground, in
Egor Local Government Area of the State.
The incident angered the community youths who blocked and set a
bonfire on the road. The ill-fated car was also pushed into the deep
side drain of the road and set on fire. he development caused traffic
gridlock and also paralysed business activities around the area.
Commuters were stranded and many of them forced to trek a long
distances? to their destinations?.
A resident in the area told journalists the children were sent on
errand by their mother. The resident who did not want to me named, said:
“That road is too busy. It is even difficult for an adult to cross the
road, let alone your own children. Why send your children on errand
without going with them?”.
