A Nigerian Professor of English, Pius Adesanmi, who had an accident along Oyo-Ogbomosho road on Wednesday, has narrated his ordeal to Premiumtimes..
According to him help did not come for him and other victims of the accident for almost two hours after the accident.
Between Oyo and Ogbomosho, his vehicle – a Nissan- had a head-on collision with a car from Ibadan (a Toyota Privia). “Two hours after the accident, no help came. The evacuation culture was zero,” he said.
Adesanmi explained that people just gathered at the scene of the accident, wondering and shouting. Others were screaming and cursing. No one attempted to help. Mr Adesanmi narrated how he passed out several times.
He said a taxi driver eventually “came to his senses”, about two hours after the accident, and took the victims to the hospital. He explained that they were taken to a general hospital in Oyo town where they spent another two hours before they were attended to.
