Teacher’s car crushes pupil to death in Lagos school

A 10-year-old pupil identified simply as Rofiat lost her life after a car knocked her down on the premises of her school, Isiu Grammar School, in the Ikorodu area of Lagos State.

PUNCH Metro gathered on Wednesday that the incident occurred on Friday, September 29.

Rofiat was said to have joined her friends on the school playground while preparing for the closing period. After a while, a vehicle parked by a teacher identified simply as Dele some meters away reportedly started to roll backwards towards her direction.

The female junior class student who did not notice the oncoming Nissan car got knocked down in the process.

A resident of the area said, “We were told that the incident happened around 1pm. The car had been parked there since morning when the teacher arrived. We don’t know how it managed to move from the position.
