A 14-month-old baby and five unidentified adults on Tuesday died in a fatal auto crash which occurred at Alapako village on the Lagos- Ibadan expressway.
The Ogere Unit Commander of the FRSC, Mr Abdulrahman Sadeeq, who confirmed the incident, said four other persons were seriously injured in the crash which occurred at about 7:30 am. 

 Sadeeq told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on phone that the victims were travelling in a white Mazda bus marked Bayelsa XC 239 YEN heading to Lagos from Kano. The bus, according to him, skidded off its lane and rammed into a ditch at the village.
