Damilola Matuluko was recently killed by an impatient driver in the United States of America (USA) A metro bus driver allegedly killed a Nigerian woman, identified as Damilola Matuluko, based in Houston, Texas in the United States of America (USA) last Friday.

The friends and relatives of Matuluko disclosed the news of her tragic demise while expressing their shock on Instagram.

The late Nigerian woman was reportedly run over by a metro bus driver due to impatience, resulting in her death.

Matuluko, who joined the City of Houston Human Resources last year December, was said to have been knocked down while walking south on Smith Street to her place of work just after 7:30am last Friday.

Multiple reports by US-based media outlets revealed that she was in the crosswalk and received a signal to proceed before the impatient driver rammed her over, thereby, crushing her to death.

“The video we have been able to review so far indicates the pedestrian was in the crosswalk,” a statement credited to a Metro police, Lt. Tim McClelland, as reported by a US-based news medium, Fox26 explained.

“The pedestrian had a walk signal, so it appears the pedestrian was legal in crossing the street at the time.”

According to McClelland, the driver is to be blamed for not yielding the right of way to Matuluko and exercising patience for her to cross before knocking her down.

“I’m told anytime something like this happens, the driver is immediately taken for drug and alcohol testing to check for any possible impairment,” McClelland added.

Mourning her death, one of the directors at the lady’s place of work, Jane Cheeks was full of praise for the deceased, adding that she would be sorely missed.

“Damilola Matuluko joined the City of Houston HR Operations Employee Relations team in December 2023, supporting the Houston Public Works Department,” Cheeks said.

“Although Damilola had only been with the HR Department for a short time, she had become a beloved and impactful team member. She will be sincerely missed by her colleagues in the City of Houston.”
