A yet-to-be-identified motorcyclist and his passenger have been crushed to death on the Odogunyan Road, Ikorodu, Lagos State.

The incident happened around 3pm on Saturday.

The rider was trying to manoeuvre between two speeding trucks when the incident happened.

An official of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the men died on the spot.

He said, “The incident happened at about 3pm around White House bus stop. The rider and his passenger were trying to manoeuvre between two trucks and in the course of doing that the rider lost concentration.

“The truck drivers were unaware and one of them crushed the two men. They died instantly.”

One of the truck drivers, who later realised what had happened, was said to have fled the scene in his truck.

It was learnt that a convoy of the Ogun State Government, which was passing by at the time, gave the truck driver a chase.

He was said to have been arrested around Sabo Roundabout in the Ikorodu area.
