It has now been revealed that the 24 year old Tolulope Atorile, who died at the Nigerian Air Force Base in Kaduna State on Tuesday, was hit by a car driven by a former classmate who wanted to greet her.

It stated, “Flying Officer Arotile died on July 14, 2020 at the age of 24, when she was inadvertently hit by the reversing vehicle of an excited former Air Force Secondary School classmate while trying to greet her.
