A driver, Ramon Mustapha, attached to the convoy of Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, has died in an accident.

CityNews Nigera learned that the accident occurred at about 1:30 PM on Tuesday when Makinde was returning from Saki town following a political engagement.

Three other members of the convoy were injured in the accident.

This newspaper gathered that Mustapha died instantly after he was flung out when the “Zebra 4” vehicle he drove eventually landed after tumbling several times. His head was mutilated.
