The Speaker of the Ogun state House of Assembly, Suraj Adekunbi, on Saturday shunned victims of a ghastly accident which occurred along the Owode-Siun-Abeokuta expressway.
The accident claimed three lives, and injured 10 others.
The crash, which occurred at Onipepeye village, along the Owode-Siun-Abeokuta dual carriageway, involved two commercial vehicles: a white Nissan Premiere, with registration number LSD 770 BZ and a green Space wagon, with registration number GGE 950CQ.

A TIMES correspondent, who met the accident victims in company with other sympathizers, reported that Speaker Adekunbi got to the scene of the crash in his official car barely few minutes after the accident occurred, but drove past the scene even while bodies laid on bare ground and injured victims wreathed in pains.

He was in a convoy of his official cars, reportedly heading towards Lagos.

Onlookers wondered why he failed to demonstrate comion and lend helping hands to the victims.
Witnesses say rather than stop to help in the rescue operation, the Speaker merely peeped at the accident scene through his car window and then ordered his driver to drive on.

The Speaker’s action baffled many sympathizers at the scene, who could not suppress their anger, some of whom rained abuses on him as his car drove away.

Mr. Adekunbi could not be reached to comment for this story Saturday night. He did not not answer or return multiple calls to his telephone seeking comments.

At the scene, one lucky survivor told TIMES that the Premiera car was heading to Sagamu from Abeokuta when the driver suddenly lost control and swerved to the other side of the dual carriageway.

It then had a head-on collision with the oncoming Space wagon car, heading to Abeokuta from Lagos.
The impact of the crash was disastrous as the two cars appeared to be over-speeding.

Three persons, including a toddler, died on the spot, while other engers suffered varying degrees of injuries.
A team of Ogun State Traffic and Compliance Control arrived the scene early enough and were seen evacuating the victims to hospital.

I am growing that's why I learn every minute.
You are grown and yet do not 'read in between the lines' yet.

No, it's jonathan that caused it. The man wanted to stop and carry the people but he noticed that jonathan is married to patience so he moved on

he should resign

Really, he couldn't have done more than calling the FRSC, and I'm sure with discretion he must've done that. Do you expect his inspection of the accident victims or feigned show of comion to change anything?

Devilish ppl in power. Everyone gets his day anyways. He will drive to meet his in front

.

Bad

Nobody knows why he didn't attend to them. Don't judge one side and leave d other

[size=54pt] MAY GOD PUNISH HIM [/size]

u r simply from the the backside of Pluto

Don't blame him yet, the juju man told him helping accident victims can be detrimental to his own juju. and this young man still want to enjoy the talisman while it last! #fetish

Very unfortunate

AH

Maybe he was rushing to his vault before something goes wrong. We should know better than to think high and lofty of our politicians.

Rubbish..

wetin una expect? Are u guys surprised by his actions.
I've always known politicians as self-centred.
As long as them no de share money there, why should he stop?

Very pathetic.

We can't say for sure if that is what really happened, Nigerians can be overtly emotional in exaggerating issues.

And if that's what really happened, we can't judge him without hearing his side of the story.

God knows best.

IMPEACHMENT

Are you his media aide?

How can you say he couldn't have done mor than calling the FRSC?
I believe the least fund he misappropiated/embezzled this month alone can foot the hospital bills of the whole victims.

Is health care free in Ogun state?

Heartless lily levered miserable public figure.
