Lives lost as driver drives into pedestrian bridge

 One person reported dead after a vehicle climbed a pedestrian bridge at the Shogunle on Sunday.

Eye witnesses gave accounts of what they suspected happened. Many believed the driver must have been drunk for approaching the pedestrian bridge instead of plying the normal road. 

The incident which happened around 12am, surprised passerbys who found that occurrence rather strange. "I heard a loud sound immediately I drove past that area and I thought it was a train moving on the rail which is also near the pedestrian bridge but I looked back and discovered it was a car that rammed into the bridge and it continued to be in motion until it flipped." A witness stated. 

A video of the incident posted online via Instablog9ja, showed residents making  efforts to rescue the victims.
