About eight students of the Obafemi Awolowo University escaped death yesterday Feb. 16th after the 18-Seater bus they were traveling in tumbled three times at Igede, Ado-Ekiti road, at about 4:30pm.

The group of students were on their way to a naming ceremony at Ado-Ekiti when the accident happened. Eye witnesses say only one female student sustained injuries. The accident victims were taken to the General Hospital at Ado-Ekiti after the incident but doctors allegedly refused to attend to them.

"The students presented their Identity Cards, yet, Doctors insisted that they must pay certain fee before they would be attended to. Though, they were later attended to at a private hospital nearby but it was kind of late." a student said
