Gunmen dressed in military uniforms reportedly attacked
commuters travelling on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway on Tuesday.
The gunmen suspected to be kidnappers stormed the road from
the bush before the Sagamu Interchange en route Lagos and started shooting
sporadically at motorists in the 18-passenger inter-state bus.
According to one of the victims who craved anonymity, “We
(passengers) were only lucky to escape the gunmen but many of us have been
injured by the bullets and our bus has been badly damaged too.”
Another video shows a man who survived bullet wounds
recounting his experience saying, “I thought I was dead, having been shot by
them.
“They faced our
vehicle shooting at us, we all lay down except the driver who was the target.
They thought we were all dead and retreated into the bush.
“The joint patrol team of police officers from Ogun and Oyo
states arrived at the scene later.
All attempts to reach the Ogun State Police Public Relations
Officer, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, for further details proved abortive as of the
time of filing his report. He did not take his calls nor replied to the text
message sent to his phone.
