A witness said, “What surprised me was that someone alighted from the vehicle. It was not even up to one minute that the accident occurred. 

“The two children died instantly while the mother and the police officer were rushed to the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan. I was around the place when the man that took them to the hospital came back to inform us that they both died at the UCH.
