sad event happened at Obalende in Lagos, The
Danfo driver whose corpse you see in the photo

mufti who he carried as a passenger.
Eyewitness account was that on getting to the
Obalende Bus Stop, near the BRT bus park, the
soldier refused to pay his transport fare when the
driver requested it, thus the angered driver refused
to move his vehicle from the park onward to their
destination until the soldier man paid up
An argument ensued between them during which
the soldier, who is suspected to be from Dodan
Barracks in Ikoyi, strangled the driver.

police, the soldier might have been killed.
