Nigerians have taken to social media to demand justice for two ladies and a commercial tricycle rider who were killed by a reckless driver in Jos, Plateau State.

The ladies identified as Jemima and Jennifer died from injuries sustained in the accident after they were allegedly rejected by the Nigerian Air Force hospital in Jos for failing to present a police report.

Jemima’s brother, Othniel, had taken to Twitter to narrate the story of how his sister who was a student of the University of Jos and her friend were hit by a drunk driver.

WuzupNigeria reports that the ladies were in a tricycle when they were hit by the driver who admitted that he was drunk.

When they were rushed to the Air Force hospital, Othniel said they were rejected because they couldn’t present a police report.

He added:

“From there, they were rushed to another hospital, but before any medical help could be given, Jemima and Jennifer had died.”

“Worse still, the police are currently attempting to grant the murderer of three people, bail.”
