A Lagos State Bus Rapid Transit driver, Osibanjo Oluwaseun is facing 16 counts based on involuntary manslaughter and grievous harm, preferred against him by the state government.
Osibanjo drove the BRT bus which collided with a moving train at Ikeja and allegedly killed six people.
Consequent upon the charges preferred against him by the State government, he was, on Tuesday, arraigned before an Ikeja High Court.
The Director of Public Prosecutions, Babajide Martins, told the court that the BRT driver negligently killed the victims by ignoring warning signals and ran into an on-coming train.
He said the defendant also negligently inflicted grievous harm on 10 other passengers on the bus.
It would be recalled that some of the people on the bus who survived the crash gave an account of what transpired before the accident.
