Officials of the Federal Road Safety Corps and Police on response call at the accident scene insisted that only their Public Relations Officers were authorised to speak.
At Ibafo bus-stop along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, a truck collided with a Lagos State BRT bus.
A PUNCH correspondent who went to the scene gathered that the accident occurred around some minutes to 6am on Saturday.
Officials of the Federal Road Safety Corps and Police on response call at the accident scene insisted that only their Public Relations Officers were authorised to speak.
However, unconfirmed reports from onlookers noted that several people on the BRT bus were injured.
Onlookers accounts noted that the BRT was parked loading its passengers at the bus stop before the truck loaded with cows heading to Lagos rammed into it, taking it off the road to destroy shops and kiosks by the roadside.
The cow truck had been towed a little away from the scene so as not to hinder traffic.
