Meanwhile, the development is coming at a time when Nigerians are still reeling from the BRT incident in which 22-year-old Oluwabamise Ayanwole was gruesomely murdered.

It will be recalled that Bamise had on February 26, 2022, boarded a BRT vehicle at Chevron Bus Stop, Lekki, heading for Oshodi but she didn’t get to her destination as the driver and some suspected accomplices murdered the young fashion designer.
