OKADA RIDER DIVES IN FRONT OF TRAILER, SUV OVER N3,000 REGISTRATION FEE

THE Iyana Adeoyo end of Ring Road, Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, was thrown into confusion on Thursday, at about 2:30 p.m when an unidentified man in his thirties, attempted to kill himself by throwing himself at oncoming articulated vehicles.

Nigerian Tribune investigations revealed that the man, an Okada rider, had been apprehended by officers of the Oyo State commercial vehicle registration unit who had, upon checking his papers, alleged that they were fake.


The seizure of the Okada man’s motorcycle had shocked him.
He pleaded vehemently that he was not aware that the papers were not genuine.
However, his pleas were said to have fallen on deaf ears, a situation which turned ugly, when the man attempted suicide as he flung himself under an articulated vehicle, and then, a SUV.

 
His attempt, however, was futile as onlookers rescued him each time he did so.
He later went into shock and started foaming from the mouth, after which some policemen arrived and carried him to the Adeoyo State Hospital
