So it turned out the story was fabricated after all. This would have been funny if not that human lives are involved.

But seriously, a look at that picture is enough to prove that the first story was a fabrication. If the luxury bus driver climbed over the people on the road, then its trajectory would have taken it further up the road before stopping. There is just no way that the luxury bus will reverse, after crushing people, to come and park parallel to the bodies on the road.

Anyway, it is so sad that the polity has been worked up like this to the point that the Senate were debating it and even the BBC was reporting the wrong story as fact.

It is also an indictment of Nigerians and journalism in Nigeria that in our quest to portray Nigeria as negatively as we can, we sink to the point of spreading false rumors. All the people who read on the internet that Nigerians have graduated from armed robbery to pure savagery will not see this latest update because the international press is unlikely to report it again.

God help us
