Not funny at all, as driver d*es in LASTMA custody. Detectives at the State Criminal
Investigation Department, Yaba, Lagos State, are investigating the cause
of the d*ath of a commercial bus driver, Okechukwu Osaka. Osaka was said to have d*ed in the custody of the Lagos State Traffic Management. OUR SOURCE gathered that on the
day, Osaka had parked his vehicle by the side of the road and had gone
to a nearby canteen to eat. It was said that while he was eating, some
people told him that a team of six LASTMA officials were towing his
vehicle. It was learnt that in a bid to stop them, he had an altercation with the LASTMA officials. Eyewitnesses said despite Osaka’s
efforts, the vehicle was towed. The deceased was said to have jumped
into the vehicle, which was taken to Iponri operational base of the
agency.
Colleagues of the deceased at the Ojuelegba Motor Park told our correspondent that it was the last time they saw Osaka alive.
