It was gory scene! His remains was gathered and covered with leaves. His shoes and blood stains could be seen littering the area. A witness revealed that Ibrahim was heading towards the Oko Baba area. He said, “Ibrahim was a graduate of a university in Ibadan, Oyo State. He came to Lagos to work. He was deaf and dumb.
“Around 2pm, after observing the Islamic prayer, we saw him walking beside the track; then he entered the main track.
“When we saw the train hooting and he continued walking, we became alarmed. Some people threw water on him, while others even threw stone at him. But he did not pay attention. He merely shook them off and readjusted his cap.” Some residents have complained that the government is not doing enough. In fact, they are asking the government to build a better barrier that would help prevent people from falling victim to this type of killing.
