How James Ocholi Died - Saharareporters by phi91lipin(m): 5:45am On Mar 07, 2016 |
The wife of James Ocholi, the
Nigerian junior Minister for Labor
who died today in an auto crash
between Kaduna and Abuja, has
also been confirmed dead.
Mrs. Ocholi, who was evacuated
from the scene of the accident to
a local hospital in Doka, Kaduna
State, was confirmed dead a few
minutes after arriving at the
hospital.
A source at the Kaduna State
government told our
correspondent that the death of
Mrs. Ocholi brings the casualty
number in the horrific accident
to three. Mr. Ocholi, who was
traveling on a private visit to
Kaduna in company of his wife
and first son, died when his
driver slammed on the brakes of
his Lexus SUV car while at top
speed.
A source told SaharaReporters
that the driver slammed on the
brakes after receiving a radio
message from the security car
behind the minister’s main
vehicle alerting him to a low
pressure on one of the back
tires. The driver’s panicked
reaction precipitated an accident
as the security vehicle then
rammed into the minister’s
vehicle, which somersaulted
several times, instantly killing
Mr. Ocholi and his first son. Mrs.
Ocholi was subsequently
pronounced dead after she was
taken to a hospital.
A source disclosed that the
bodies of Mr. Ocholi and his
family were being transported to
a morgue in Abuja. |

Is this some sort of putting the blame on the driver or what? Did the driver grant Sahara reporters an interview? 3 Likes 2 Shares |

The Roads are very bad and in disrepair. The tyres we have now are bad too. Petrol scarcity is daring and the economy is on the run too. 1 Like |

This death or accident should be investigated asap, I smell something...!!! If the driver survived then he should tell us what happened. I don't get how it would take a car behind to alert him of low pressured tyre ad then got knocked from behind to a somersaults of the car May their souls RIP |

According to FRSC, “The driver, the chief detail, the orderly and the Personal Assistant were injured.” https://www.nairaland.com/2974720/how-ocholi-wife-son-died So, I wonder. Can it be that the SUV was overloaded? Is it that an incompetent driver was engaged without properly training him on defensive driving? Were they all wearing their seat belts? Learnings From Incident: 1. Drive defensively, 2. Don't overspeed (it kills), 3. Don't overload vehicle, 4. And more importantly, wear seat belt through the duration of journey (it saves lives) 2 Likes |

tpiar: You just commented like someone with shallow brain. Is it bad road that caused low pressure in tires? Someone marched break at top speed leading to consequential summersault, but here you are blaming road. 1 Like |

vanndubi: Defensive driving against which attack? Besides, how can a big sized suv with 4persons become overloaded? |
Re: How James Ocholi Died - Saharareporters by vanndubi: 2:00pm On Mar 07, 2016 |
dubemnaija: Defensive driving does not meaning that the driving to protect yourself from aggression or attack as you are suggesting. According to roaddriver.co.uk, "Defensive driving is a form of training or practice for motor vehicle drivers to drive in such a way that they consciously reduce the dangers associated with driving. They do this by anticipating dangerous scenarios, which could range from bad weather to erring motorists". I know your type. Your type find it difficult to read words in a sentence sequentially from beginning to the end. I referenced FRSC on the number of injured persons in the "lone" accident which included: "(1)the driver (2) the chief detail (3) the police orderly and (4) the personal assistant. That is 4 IPs. When you add that to the 3 fatalities, is that not 7 persons? 1 Like |
