Dagrin in Hospital- Involved in Fatal Accident.

Rising rapper Dagrin was in a minor accident yesterday evening, NET sources have confirmed.

The hip hop act, who had been underground for years, before finding favour with fans last year, had his car – a black Nissan Maxima- damaged yesterday while driving to Surulere (in Lagos) with his friends, after a careless truck driver ran into him and tore off his car fender. They were returning from Ikeja.

The rapper has been unreachable, and repeated attempts at getting him to comment proved abortive. ‘The calls were getting too much, so he had to put off his phone’, one of his close friends who was in the car with him told us.

The source says the truck driver has agreed to be responsible for the damages; but we are unable to confirm this from Dagrin or a rep

Speaking writing now, Dagrin is still at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, where Doctors are working hard to stabilise his condition after the nasty crash that left him comatose, yesterday.

Here are pictures of Dagrin, lying in hospital, as well as those of his badly-damaged car…

Here’s what happened exactly, according to our reporter who visited LUTH today.

He went to his father’s place at Meiran on Tuesday and left 7pm the
same day for his fried’s place. The friend’s name is James. He was
leaving James place on Wednesday morning at 2am.

The incident happened infront of Alakara Police Station in Mushin.

The truck was parked outside the police station on the road. The truck was a truck delivering cement. He ran under the truck and his car was crushed.

The police removed Dagrin’s plate number before his folks who had rushed him to the hospital came back to the scene.

He first rushed to T & S (Tai Solarin) Hospital at Olosha in Mushin and the doctor advised the family to take him to LUTH for intensive care since they don’t have the facilities required. Though they gave him first aid there.

He has been unconscious since the incident, but 5.49pm Thursday evening, the family got relaxed that he is getting conscious.

His father and Tunde went in to see him at 5.35pm after a long wait outside without anyone being allowed inside the ward he is being treated.

He had a cut in his face, jaw and a swollen head, but no fracture.

Get well soon Dargin.
