The board of Spring Branch Independent School District, Houston, on
Monday honored US based Nigerian -Samuel Agunbiade for keeping 30
students safe on Friday when their bus caught fire. Agunbiade said he
heard a loud pop and saw smoke coming from the bus’s tailpipe. He
immediately pulled off and within a few minutes the bus caught fire but
he got all the students off the bus unharmed. Video taken by a witness
shows the terrifying moment when the bus exploded.
While reacting to the honor, Agunbiade who has been a bus driver for 21
years, said: "They're calling me a hero. I said hero? I just did what I
was supposed to do. You guys are mine. I'm supposed to take care of
you."
