TRUCK KILLS UNDERGRADUATE

“It’s a very sad occurrence because the victim was the daughter of a retiree of the FRSC. She was the last child of an FRSC Marshal, Shakiru Kuku, who retired two years ago,” he said.

The FRSC BOSS added that calm had been restored to the hitherto riotous situation caused by students of the university on the Sagamu-Benin expressway over the victim’s death, and equally advised motorists and road users to always adhere to speed limit and other traffic regulations on the highways to prevent unwanted accidents.

When contacted, the university’s Public Relations Officer, Nuraen Bakenne said that the university community was pained by the untimely death of Kuku, lamenting that, the TASUED management sympathises with the family, relations and friends of the student.

“The information reaching us is that the driver and truck had been apprehended by the police and was being held at the Igbeba Police Command in Ijebu-Ode,” Bakenne said.
