According to her, “My husband was on a bike. A vehicle was in front of the “Okada”. The protesters asked the driver to stop and they were molesting him. In an attempt for the driver to escape, he ran into my husband.
“He was taken to the hospital, where he was confirmed dead.
“If the EndSARS protest had not happened, my husband would be alive by now.”
