Take-It-Back Movement Rescues Lagos-Ibadan Accident Victims, Criticises Police Emergency Response
The Take-It-Back Movement (TIB) rescued passengers from a commercial bus accident on the Lagos–Ibadan Expressway at Lufuwape, after a tyre burst caused the vehicle to somersault. Several passengers were injured, some severely, though no deaths were reported. TIB members intervened immediately, highlighting failures in Nigeria’s emergency response system. Attempts to get assistance from the Divisional Police Officer of Redeemed Police Division initially failed. A medical professional among the rescuers coordinated with emergency services, ensuring the injured were transported to hospital. The group criticised public indifference at the scene and called for improved emergency response mechanisms along major highways, while urging citizens to prioritise empathy and prompt action during accidents.
