<p>A Nigerian <a target="_blank" href="http://gistreel.com/tag/Lady"><strong>lady</strong></a> has taken to social media to lament after a <strong>BRT bus</strong> allegedly disobeyed a <strong>traffic light</strong> and rammed into her <strong>car</strong>, damaging the front end of the vehicle at Obalende, Lagos.</p>
<p>This incident was shared in a series of posts on X (formerly Twitter) by the user @The_Barr_OluT, who wrote:</p>
<p><em>“I’m livid&#x203c;&#xfe0f;&#x203c;&#xfe0f;&#x203c;&#xfe0f; Still shaking as I type this &#x203c;&#xfe0f;&#x203c;&#xfe0f;&#x203c;&#xfe0f;&#x203c;&#xfe0f; A BRT bus crushed the front of my vehicle at about 6:40pm this evening on my way from work.”</em></p>
<p>She explained that she was returning from work when the crash occurred. According to her, she was stopped by a red traffic light, and when the green light came on, she moved forward.</p>
<p>That was when a BRT bus with plate number “EKY564XY” allegedly ran across her lane at high speed and hit her car.</p>
<p><em>“Everything is broken. The bumper shattered, the lights destroyed, the bonnet cover removed &#x1f494;&#x1f494;&#x1f494; It happened at Obalende with several eye witnesses.”</em></p>
<p>She added:</p>
<p><em>“Even with the traffic light which was green for our lane to pass, there was also a civilian at the junction controlling traffic, yet this driver crushed our car &#x1f494; After waiting in turn for the vehicles at the other side of the road to pass, the other lane (where the BRT was) was stopped and our lane was passed.”</em></p>
<p>“<em>As soon as we moved an inch, a BRT bus with plate number EKY564XY (driver’s face in frame 3) drove in full speed and collided into our car, destroying car parts worth hundreds of thousands &#x1f494;&#x1f494;&#x1f494;.”</em></p>
<p>“<em>In shock, we (I and the person driving) came down to assess the damage, and to make videos and capture the plates before he runs, but to our surprise and that of everyone around, including the civilian passing traffic, the BRT driver claimed to not have seen us and that he had right to speed and ram into our vehicle the way he did.”</em></p>
<p>She said the driver showed no remorse and instead mocked her for recording the incident:</p>
<p>“<em>He asked for the usefulness of the video I was making and I told him I’ll show him the power of social media&#x203c;&#xfe0f; It is unfair for me to go to work for 40 working days of two months, toiling day and night only to pour the money into the repair of a car collision caused by the wild animals Lagos state government employs as driver &#x1f494;&#x1f494;.”</em></p>
<p><em>“After calling me names, he ended up saying there is a scratch on his bus too so we should both move on. A scratch compared to the damage this wicked human caused.”</em></p>
<p>Calling for justice and accountability, she pleaded:</p>
<p><em>“I want to beg everyone to help me retweet massively tagging @followlasg and @jidesanwoolu to see how their driver endangers the lives and properties of the same citizens he is set to protect.”</em></p>
<p>She further added:</p>
<p>“<em>Lest I forget, despite eye witness claims he adamantly insisted he was in the right and finally entered his vehicle and zoomed off leaving us at the scene.”</em></p>
<p><em>“Lagos state and the driver must repair every single damage made to this car&#x203c;&#xfe0f;&#x203c;&#xfe0f; I cannot be working so hard and pouring my salary into repairing damages caused by wicked and unruly drivers of @lagosstategov and @Lamataonline.”</em></p>
<p><em>“I am ready to come to their office to substantiate every claim written in this tweet. @jidesanwoolu where do I see money to repair this damage your driver caused to this car? &#x1f494;&#x1f494;&#x1f494;”</em></p>
<p><em>“I am a mere salary earner trying to fend for myself. Frame 1: shows the damage, Frame 2: raining insults, Frame 3: passenger apologizing on his behalf (driver in navy blue), Frame 4: him driving off.”</em></p>
<p>The post, which included photos and video footage, quickly gained attention, with many users reacting and urging Lagos State officials to take swift action.</p>
<p><strong>See some reactions below:</strong></p>
<p><strong>@toosavage419:</strong><em> “I have a car so I know how pained you are. Me I go retweet just dey post dey go.”</em></p>
<p><strong>@WilliamSte71907:</strong><em> “This is heartbreaking. No one should have to go through this kind of trauma. Hope @jidesanwoolu sees this and takes action—people deserve accountability. (And yeah, @CameronWest38 ’s right, markets might bounce, but real issues like this can’t wait.) Stay strong.”</em></p>
<p><strong>@BolajiOM:</strong><em> “BRT buses are under comprehensive insurance schemes. In fact, the law makes it a mandate for such govt buses to be insured. If you can get the number plate of the bus, you can actually get indemnified by the insurance company that covers the loss that has occasioned against you.”</em></p>
<p><strong>@osa_dolor:</strong><em> “This is sad but thank God you’re not hurt.”</em></p>
<p><strong>@n6oflife6: </strong><em>“Hundred of people have been tagging @jidesanwoolu on this issue. Zero replies but wait till somebody Crochets his ugly face on a Dress he will rush to host them at Lagos state govt house. Clown.”</em></p>
<p><strong>@mosunfabrics: </strong><em>“You were so calm. Person wey u suppose hold him shirt begin dey cry. You supposed dey talk say car wey u still dey pay the loan.”</em></p>
