A truck has crushed a middle-aged woman at Onihale area, near Owode-Ijako, in the state on Thursday. This was revealed by the Ogun State Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Corps (TRACE).
Mrs Temitope Oseni, the Owode-Ijako Unit Commander of TRACE, who spoke on behalf of the Corps Commander, Mr Seni Ogunyemi, told NAN in Ota, that the incident occurred at about 8:23 am.
Oseni said that a FAW truck, marked BHN 1353, was inbound Onihale area when it suddenly lost control due to brake failure and rammed into a motorcyclist and a woman who was about to alight in front of her father’s hotel.
