OOU students demand N80m compensation for accident victims’ families

Students of the Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State yesterday demanded N80 million compensation for the families of their eight colleagues who died in the Sagamu-Benin Expressway auto crash. 

The students also gave a fresh seven-day ultimatum to the police to arrest the driver of the truck which crushed 12 persons to death, including their colleagues.
A DAF truck laden with container on June 26 crushed a Mazda commercial bus conveying some passengers on the highway, killing 12 people and leaving one injured. 
Consequently, OOU students went on the rampage and vandalised 11 trucks and goods worth millions of naira at a nearby manufacturing company which they claimed the driver worked for. But in a petition to Governor Ibikunle Amosun, the OOU Students Union Government (SUG) expressed regret that justice had not been done since the unfortunate incident.
