London bus driver who killed girl, 9, after falling asleep due to smoking cannabis jailed for four years
Briefly

Martin Asolo-Ogugua, a 23-year-old bus driver, has been sentenced to four years in prison for killing nine-year-old Ada Bicakci while driving under the influence of drugs. The incident occurred in Bexleyheath when Asolo-Ogugua fell asleep at the wheel and mounted the pavement. Ada died two days later from her injuries. Her father expressed profound grief and regret, vowing to honor his daughter's memory and campaign against drug driving. Asolo-Ogugua was also banned from driving for seven years and had previously pleaded guilty to dangerous driving charges.
The images of that horrific moment remain seared into my mind. That scene replays endlessly, a constant reminder of the day my world fractured beyond repair.
This tragedy happened on my watch, a father's ultimate failure. My world has been turned upside down, and with it, the foundations of my family have crumbled.
