Kogi Speaker’s Convoy In Fatal Auto Crash

The convoy of the Speaker of the Kogi State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mommoh Jimoh Lawal was involved in a fatal car crash on New Year Day along Okene-Lokoja Road. A police Constable, Akeem Lamidi, who was riding a Toyota truck alongside other policemen attached to the Speaker, died on the scene.

The Speaker was said to be travelling to his Okene home town when a heavy duty truck ran into his escort van. Just last week, the governor of the state, Idris Wada, was involved in a car crash that claimed the life of his ADC.

  4. I live in Germany and commute the Autobahn daily to work people doing up to 300kp/h yet i have never seen a single accident.

    When our government are prepared to replicate the same conditions that allow this type of safety, then they will stop dying like fowl. All arrows point at corruption...

    RIP ADC

  27. Politicians Be afraid, Be really afraid Coz the judgement of God is visiting U ppl one by one. MY advice, make ur ways right with God and serve ur ppl as u ought to.

  28. The way these men drive and chase 'ordinary' motorists off our DEPLORABLE roads like they are carrying world treasures beats me.
    You are enthroned by the 'ordinary' men, you enter your mansion and block the gate(s) with fierce looking men and Alsatian dogs, you ply the roads with tinted glass cars and a convoy as long as a pyton speeding like an aimless cheetah and you expect the 'spirits' of the 'law' to be merciful. This was the same road you plied with untinted glasses and your head through the roof waving like a child who is seeing an aeroplane for the first time.
    Call me Barack Obama, Fashola and Amaechi let's ask them how they ply the roads of their individual states.

    2. A-million like for ur comment.
      We put them there by our votes, but they treat us on the road like puppies.
      Observe several countries in movies (cos I've never travelled out yet to see it myself), how their Leaders respect and acknowledge their citizens, both in public and in private. They protect the citizens' interest to an extent. They can be seen any where and talk to masses as though they're neighbours. But here in Nigeria! NA ABOMINATION!!!!

  52. Love your land and your people back. Fix the infrastructures for the masses that employed you as their leader. Serve your people with the kind of love you have for yourself and your children. People employed you to serve them, not for them to serve you. This applies to the military, police and other security personnel, you are not animals in uniform, stop behaving like rabid animals.
    Return stolen loot and create jobs for all. Nobody is asking for handouts, just a chance to survive through hard work from the jobs you have created, the infrastructures you have repaired and others you have made available.

  53. nigerians are strange people that lie suffering. some people still want to pray for so called prominent people after all their atrocities and corruption. God is finally catching up with them. they could have awarded contracts to fix the road and didn't do it. now they re reaping the benefits of the hand work. just sorry for tha adc's that die. more to face judgement. 60b for phones should be spent on road not rubbish projects. they will all perish as long as the keep helpless nigerians in abject poverty and suffering

  54. this is just the beginning.

  55. I feel this is more political than spiritual. Has it crossed your mind that someone (probably d state house mechanic) might have been paid handsomely 2 tamper with something in Wada's car to cause an accident? How about if the truck driver was paid to run into the speaker's convoy just to shut him up forever....things like this have happened before to other govt officials...something is definitely wrong in Kogi state...May d souls of d dead RIP. Ameen

    ReplyDelete
  56. And a very liable source told me that d daughter of Kogi state's CSO was kidnapped but released immediately..it might have just been a random act seeing that this happened in Lagos but then again was it really a random act?

  57. The roads surely will receive the so much clamoured for attention now , That is the way our leaders work

  58. This is quite incredible!God Almighty will intervene.

  59. The way these men and their convoy drive recklessly on our roads (and chasing every other road user into the bush), it is no surprise what happens before they get to their destination. The earlier they realise tha accidents and death is no respecter of persons, the better for all road users and their families!

  61. Linda!! Your grammar is so distracting!!! For a second, I thought that the Speaker died!! How can it be a FATAL ACCIDENT when there were survivors. How about calling it a GHASTLY MOTOR ACCIDENT?
