A driver attached to one of the vehicles in the convoy of Oyo Governor Seyi Makinde died in a crash on Tuesday.
Three others in the convoy were also injured when the Governor was returning to Ibadan from Saki where he had gone to attend a town hall meeting with members of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) ahead of his reelection bid.
It was gathered the driver identified as Ramon Mustapha died on the spot after he was flung when his vehicle eventually landed after tumbling several times.
A source said the situation could have been saved had the driver used his seat belt.
