The deceased, a mother of 10, was said to have been hard working and full of life before she met her death at about 11 am on that fateful day.
One of her children, Alhaji Muktari says when he got to the scene of the accident; he met a tyre of the vehicle resting on the body of his mother.
According to him, his mother was standing at the junction when the tipper driver came and hit her. She had no chance to escape.
Some residents, who claimed to have witnessed the tragic episode, alleged that the tipper driver was on the phone. If the claims are true, the driver probably lost concentration while the vehicle followed its own course. The drivers’ union, however, disputed the claims. Some angry residents responded by setting fire to the vehicle.
