Two trains collided in the Agege area of Lagos state On Sunday, August 16, 2015, leaving two people dead and one seriously injured. The two dead passengers were said to be hanging illegally by the moving train’s rooftop when the sad incident occurred.
This accident makes it the second in barely two weeks after a train was reported to have collided with a trailer. While the injured passenger is presently receiving treatment hospital, Mr Akin Osinowo, Lagos Railway District Manager (RDM) has called on the families of the deceased to come and collect the corpses at the Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Ebute-Meta.
A panel of inquiry has however been set up to determine the cause of the unfortunate incident between the two trains. According to the Managing Director of the NRC, Mr Adeseyi Sijuwade, members of the panel include Directors of Operations, Electrical, Mechanical, Signal and Intelligent Unit.
