Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has declared three days of mourning for those who died in the BRT train accident on Thursday morning.
A BRT staff bus conveying workers of the Lagos State government to the state Secretariat, Alausa, Ikeja, early Thursday morning was involved in a fatal accident as it collided with a train at the PWD Bus Stop.
Bus number 33, which conveyed 85 state government workers and was coming from Isolo on Thursday morning at 7:30 am and heading to Alausa, had two dead on the spot while four later died at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH), Ikeja.
At the PWD rail crossing, the driver attempted to make a dangerous turning but was caught up with the coming train, which dragged it to another spot.
