An official from LAGBUS Asset Management Limited, operators of the BRT buses has denied the claim that one of their buses accidentally killed a soldier which led to the men and women of the Nigerian Army hitting the road and vandalizing and setting the buses on fire.....
So what exactly led to the damage that is now being estimated at over a hundred million Naira?
According to the official, they had absolutely nothing to do with the reason the soldiers went on rampage, they only found a dead body in one of their buses and decided to report the case to the police.....
"By 10pm last night, one of our buses broke down at Onipanu, by 11pm a rescue team with a van went to the scene to tow the bus. Unfortunately, area boys started stoning our team which made our men to leave. Meanwhile the driver put on the hazard light and C-caution to alert motorist of the break-down. By 5am this morning, before the rescue team got to the scene, a corpse had been deposited in our bus and a motorcycle parked behind it. When we saw it, we reported the case to the Pedro Police Station, Somolu,but before we got back to the scene, soldier had burnt down five BRT buses and one belonging to LAGBUS"
BRT buses were withdrawn from that particular rout to prevent founder damages. The dead man was later found to be an Army Corporal. The case is now under investigations.....
