In their tweet, they said they were carrying out rescue already, meaning rescue was under way already, see lie abeg, that's how did would still say the same lie in a true instance of an accident when they wouldn't have gotten to the scene yet sef.

  53. Listening on 96.1FM Yoruba and it's completely false that either BRT or LagBus lost a bus full of riders in the lagoon off Third Mainland Bridge. Absolute social-media rumour.

    Please don't scare my mother like that again.

    ReplyDelete
  54. O MY GOD
    How did this happen was the bus going too fast and it fliped
    Or the wind

  55. Apparently the news was fake. & the silly @FRSCNigera deleted the tweet without any form of apology & went ahead to lie that the tweet was retweeted by them & not tweeted from them. An idiot(s) must be in charge of their 'new media' dept. FRSC just proved their incompetence once again. I guess 'It's better to keep quiet & be thought a fool than to speak (tweet) & remove all doubt'. #Smh

    ReplyDelete

    FRSC spokesman, Jonas Agwu, says @FRSCNigeria tweet about BRT falling off 3rd Mainland Bridge in Lagos is a "hoax" as its twitter handler was hacked. So please, disregard the information about the full loaded BRT Bus that was rumoured to have plunged into Lagos Lagooon. Thank you.

    CKN Nigeria has finally gotten in touch with the Lagos Sector Commander of the FRSC Mr Akpabio who confirmed that there was nothing like a BRT bus crash at 3rd Mainland Bridge today..According to,the rumour is being peddled by rumour mongers who were out to create panic amongst Lagosians..The FRSC HQ according to him has also been contacted to send out an alert across the country on this development immediately..We regret being part of the false alarm..CKN Nigeria
