A woman lost her life on Friday, June 20, after being hit by a long vehicle at the Bortianor Bus Stop along the Mallam-Kasoa highway.
The incident occurred as the victim attempted to cross the busy road but was run over by a truck bearing registration number WR 1475-13.
Eyewitnesses say the driver swerved off the main lane to avoid crashing into vehicles that had stopped for other pedestrians.
In the process, the truck hit the woman, who was standing on the road's median. "The woman didn't see because there is no streetlight on this road, from Mallam junction to Kasoa.
