Dangote truck driver crushes own conductor to death

Tragedy struck on the Lekki-Epe Expressway after the driver of a truck belonging to the Dangote Cement, identified as Ajani Yekini, crushed his own conductor, Mojeed Jubril, to death.

PUNCH Metro learnt that Jubril had slept under the truck before Yekini mounted the steering and drove off.

 He was said to have climbed on his head, killing Jubril on the spot.

Policemen from the Elemoro division were said to have arrived to remove the corpse at the Frajend Coy end of the Lekki-Epe Expressway, where the incident happened.

A senior official of the Federal Road Safety Corps, Azubuike Onyemeh, said the conductor was killed around 10.30am.

He said, “The truck was left overnight at the spot by the driver. The conductor decided to sleep under it. By Wednesday morning, the driver, who was not aware that the man was sleeping there, just drove off. It was the cry of the man that caught his attention, but by then, it was too late, as the vehicle had run over him.”
