This is not the first time a soldier will be having a violent encounter with a BRT driver, sometime in July 2014, some soldiers reportedly went on rampage, burning BRT buses and grounding human and vehicular movements along Ikorodu road, Lagos, following allegations that a commercial bus belonging to the Lagos state government ran over one of them, and killed him at the Palmgrove bus stop.
