Four Students of Lead City University, Ibadan Die in Car Crash

Sad news reaching us is that four students of Lead City University, a private university in Ibadan, Oyo State died in a car crash in the early hours of today. The accident occurred along Ring Road, Ibadan.
It was reported that the students were heading to Koko Dome night club for a party hosted by some students of the University when the car they were riding in hit another car and somersaulted multiple times. Six friends were involved in the accident, but four of them have passed on while two are still in critical condition.
It is not certain if the driver of the vehicle was driving under the influence of alcohol but the gruesome pictures of the crash and damage to the vehicle reveals that the cars were probably on high speed when the accident occurred.
It is hoped this would serve as a warning to students and young people driving at odd hours of the night to exercise caution; avoid over speeding and driving under the influence of alcohol. One can never be too careful.
May their souls Rest In Peace. Our prayers are with the families of the students and the entire University.
