Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that while the public continues to demand that justice be served in the murder of Bamise who went missing and was later found dead after boarding a BRT, the bus driver narrated what happened on that day.

Andrew said he was under duress as one of the men who had a gun gave him instructions on where to stop and the route to follow.
