The Sparklightnews gathered that the tragic incident which occurred on Friday left occupants of the vehicle in shock.
A passenger who witnessed the incident had narrated in a viral WhatsApp message that he took control of the bus in motion after the development to save other students and avert further tragedy.

According to him “Our bus driver just died on the road while driving us from Sanrab to Unilorin. I was sitting in the front but I wasn’t looking up because I was reading the Qur’an on my phone.

“The other person beside me just called my attention to the driver he noticed suddenly slumped, shouting Baba multiple times.

By the time I looked up, he was already gasping and the bus was drifting away from the road. I had to press the brake, take control of the steering and bring the bus to a halt.

“He was pronounced dead at the School clinic. Everything happened within 30 minutes”, he said.
