Woman Killed in Keke vs Trailer Crash, Apapa-Oshodi Expressway, 2016
During the night of about April 19, 2016, a young woman died near the Cele bus stop on the Apapa-Oshodi Expressway in Lagos, Nigeria, while riding in a keke, a motorized tricycle commonly operated as a taxi across Nigeria. Near a filling station, one trailer began making a U-turn. Instead of waiting, the keke rider attempted to go around it, placing the keke directly in front of an approaching trailer, which struck it head-on. The rider was also killed. A Nigerian news report said the woman was Gloria Eze, from Mbieri in Mbaitoli, Imo State, but the name was not confirmed by a second outlet. The keke rider's name was never reported. |

Re: Woman Killed in Keke vs Trailer Crash, Apapa-Oshodi Expressway, 2016
“The lady has been identified of Imo State. She was involved in an accident at Cele bustop along Apapa Oshodi Expressway close to PM filling station between a Keke and a trailer. A trailer was making a U turn close to PM filling station and d Keke man could not have patience and he tried to take express instead, but he was hit by an oncoming trailer. It was a head on collision. Keke man died instantly with his head completely crushed. The lady was still breathing and the passengers in d Keke, but when the team of Members of Nigerian Red Cross society rushed her and the others to the Isolo General Hospital, she was confirmed dead by the doctor; this includes other efforts made by the society. The others survived. The trailer driver ran away with his trailer. Efforts were made in conjunction with both Red Cross and Illasa Police MTD, to locate the relatives of the diseased but only the Keke man’s relative were located. The man was taken to East about 1:49am while the lady’s copse has been deposited at the Yaba Morgue for the relative to come for her corpse. |
