“The painful part was that the containerised truck was said to be on high speed that he could not control himself easily, hence ramming into children who were on their way to school and several tricycles. It is very sad” he lamented.
While consoling parents of the deceased, Prince Oluomo prayed God to grant them the fortitude to bear the unfortunate loss.
He however enjoined motorists to be more careful on the road and always consider the interests of other road users while plying the roads.
“They should always consider that there are other people also using the road” advised Oluomo
