Three school pupils, siblings, were feared killed when a commercial vehicle ran over them on Kajola/Igbominasi Highway in Ilesa, Osun State, yesterday.
The siblings met their deaths on their way to school. Residents of the area consequently blocked the highway in protest and the blockage led to a gridlock that compelled motorists to seek alternative routes.
An eyewitness said that the bus ran over the pupils while on their way to school and they were rushed to a hospital before the police arrived.
