A driver
and many of his passengers were burnt beyond recognition in a fatal accident
along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway this afternoon. Eyewitnesses say the bus
driver was picking passengers on the expressway and upon sighting members of
the National Union Of Road Transport Workers Task Force, he sped off and ran
into a ditch. The bus somersaulted and burst into flames. The bus driver and
most of the passengers died in the ensuing fire. Two passengers escaped with
major burns. They have been taken to the hospital for medical care.
