I can bet he owns that car through illicit means.

At 18, he just self destruct.

Fast life on a fast lane.

Nigerian police are useless. Trying to arrest people that just had an accident? People who lost loved one? No investigation to even know the cause. Who does that, not even trying to ensure that they are ok, not trying to ensure that the there might be survivor amongst the dead.
They saw that accident as an opportunity of extortion. Very inhumane set of people. Useless pricks

the drivers committed traffic offences like driving without a license and over speeding which led to the deaths of their friends. so the police was doing the right thing.

but just the way they didnt need to be told to arrest the drivers, they didnt need to be told to take care of the survivors, the corpses and do the needful in contacting the families

That job is for the medics.

And, yes, both drivers should be arrested, taken to hospitals for check and face the music afterwards. Else, they will kill again.

Those useless and heartless policemen are only concerned with the bail money they'll collect from the victims who survived the accident.

The ones lying on the ground are presumed dead (even if they have a low pulse) thus considered as bad market for them.

That's how damaged the average Nigerian policeman is. Everything is money to them.

If you are a victim is this what you will type? Those drivers might not have driving license if true that is murder case on them, if they have that will be considered manslaughter. Everything is about Police collecting money or bribe and you will be the one comparing them with Police in other climes

They did nothing right!
The first thing they should haver done was apply first aid assuming they know one otherwise they radio NEMA or the relevant authorities first before taking the surviving victims to the hospital to ascertain they have no internal injuries or complications from the accident and after that they can be questioned to determine the root cause. You just don't put someone who came out of such a situation on handcuffs. The way some of u reason just clearly shows we really deserve all of what we are getting from Nigeria

Our police force is a disgrace to police profession worldwide. They are only interested in their personal gain and nothing more. In a normal country they would try to find out the identity of the victims and try to locate their families if possible but here they are handcuffing the survivors because of probable bail money.

But what would an 18 Yr old be doing out at about 1 am with friends? Parents of these days and age. They have failed in their responsibilities.

When my mum warned about "bad company", this was exactly what she was talking about...!


When I say more than 80% of Nigerian drivers (including those licensed and unlicensed) have absolutely no business driving even in a street, una go say I dey badmouth my country.


Most accidents in this nation are caused by recklessness and stupidity among our drivers rather than bad roads.


Sadly, many of you will rather pray against accidents or for journey mercies instead of calling out bad drivers.
so calling out the drivers will stop them from driving reckless on the road.
If don't believe in prayers is fine but don't discourage people

Even in so called advanved if you cause an accident due to reckless driving you will be arrested on the spot.

You people should stop bringing sentiments into everything.

An accident that happened at 1am on a Sunday morning when the road was virtually empty was likely caused by recklessness on the part of one or both drivers

Why is an 18year old without a license out on the road by 1a.m? See fast life. His fellow younglings are gone now, and he's in serious trouble.

18 year old boy driving is not a crime. It is constitutionally and ethically right.

If he has a valid and original drivers license, and not influenced by drugs and alcohol, then it is acceptable. Accident are unavoidable. The most morale people do have accidents.
