I disagree that anyone should be prosecuted for failing to do anything. Its just an unfortunate incident all around. I feel real bad for the parents of the little boy.
D, yes the young boy went back to fetch his bag but that does not exonerate the bus drivers responsibility either. If justice is to be pursued in this case the school and the driver could be found negligent on issues ranging from driver not having a valid license, faulty parts on the bus, was the driver drunk at the time of the accident. Such tests are not carried out in Nigeria.

A good chunk of our people fail the driving test the first time they take it and is not because they cannot drive but they fail to obey signs and yield.
