“AJ” was a passenger in a vehicle traveling “beyond the legally prescribed speed limit” before colliding with “a stationary truck” during an “overtaking maneuver” on Monday morning near Lagos in Nigeria.
That’s according to a new report from BBC News.
In total, five adult males were involved in the crash. Two were killed while another two escaped unhurt. Joshua was “rescued alive and sustained minor injuries” but taken to a nearby hospital for “medical attention.“
Joshua, 36, was on his way to visit family in Sagamu.
“We are hoping for his speedy recovery and also the people who passed away, I pray for the departed to rest in peace,” a relative told BBC. “He’s normally coming around for the New Year. We haven’t seen him so we were expecting him.”
