Tolulope: Man Who Drove Vehicle Not Qualified To Drive!

By Ella Makondo

Initial reports from investigations by the Nigerian Air Force ( NAF) show that the man who drove the vehicle that killed Nigeria’s first female helicopter combat pilot, Tolulope Arotile does not have a driving licence.

Tolulope was killed on Tuesday when a former classmate visiting the NAF base reversed his vehicle and killed her inadvertently.

Two suspects  including the driver and a passenger are both in the custody of the Air Police.

It was further gathered that due to the out cries that greeted the sudden and tragic death of the young officer, the NAF authorities instructed the Air Police and Intelligence units of the force to probe the freak accident.

GWG  gathered that  NAF is determined  to unravel the real motive and cause of the freak accident that claimed the life of the young officer.

Sources have now revealed that preliminary investigations showed that the driver of the vehicle does not have a drivers’ license.

Confirming the probe of Arotile’s death by the force, NAF Director of Public Relations and Information, Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola, said when the investigation is completed, “whatever information needs to go out will go out.”

 “First of all, in my first statement, I said she died from a road traffic accident. I further clarified the nature of the road traffic accident where one of her excited classmates, who saw her, reversed his car, which led to him hitting her and knocking her down. This led to head injuries and a lot of haemorrhaging, which ultimately resulted in her death.
