Victims Of Bus/Train Accident Laid On The Floor Outside Lagos Hospital [Video]

Victims of Thursday morning accident involving a BRT bus and a train have been evacuated to the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH).

KanyiDaily had earlier reported that two people died and many others injured after a train crashed a Lagos state government staff bus in the Shogunle area of Oshodi.

It was gathered that the bus was attempting to cross the rail track when an oncoming train rammed into it and dragged the vehicle from Shogunle to the PWD area of Ikeja.

A spokesperson for the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) in Lagos, Ibrahim Farinloye confirmed that two female staff of the state government died in the accident with many others injured.

In a video circulating on social media, LASUTH staff could be seen laying foam in an open space to treat the victims of the bus/train accident on the floor outside the hospital.

It was gathered LASUTH made the decision because the hospital lacked bed spaces in their facilities to immediately accommodate the victims.
