The Managing Director of Primero Transport Services Ltd, Mr. Fola Tinubu has said that commercial motorcyclists on the dedicated BRT lane were responsible for the collision of its two buses on Monday.
He said that the accident was caused by commercial motorcyclists riding in between buses.
“We need to do something about this Okada menace because if we don’t do something about it, this kind of thing will still happen again.
“The buses were trying to evade an Okada and that was when they collided with each other,he said.”

“There were some minor injuries and all the affected have been released from the hospital. We thank God for that.
