Summary: A 26-year-old woman, Moses Peace, was killed by a hit-and-run convoy in Port Harcourt. Friends and family demand justice as investigations continue. #Justice4MosesPeace
The city of Port Harcourt is in mourning following the tragic death of Moses Peace, a vibrant 26-year-old woman whose life was cut short by a reckless hit-and-run incident along Ada George Road on March 19, 2026.
According to eyewitnesses, Moses Peace was returning from a church programme when she was struck by a speeding convoy. Multiple vehicles in the convoy allegedly ran over her, and shockingly, none of the drivers stopped to render assistance or show any form of concern. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
The heartbreaking incident has sparked widespread outrage and grief across Rivers State, with many Nigerians calling for swift justice and accountability.
A Life Full of Promise, Gone Too Soon
Friends describe Moses Peace as a bright, promising young woman whose future was brutally stolen by irresponsibility and callous disregard for human life. Her death has left family members devastated and the community demanding answers.
Gloria Borlo, a lawyer and close friend of the deceased, expressed her anguish in an emotional appeal: “Moses Peace, a vibrant, promising 26-year-old, was tragically taken from us by reckless hit-and-run drivers (learnt it was a convoy) and we can’t stay quiet. A life so full of light was extinguished in an instant, not by fate, but by irresponsibility and disregard for human life.”
She added, “No family should endure such devastation. No society should tolerate such injustice. A life taken must never be ignored; it must be accounted for.”
Urgent Appeal for Witnesses and Evidence
Friends and family are urgently appealing to residents, commuters, and business owners around Ada George, Omega Junction, and its environs to come forward with any information that could help identify those responsible.
If you were anywhere within that axis between 7:30 PM and 7:50 PM on Thursday, March 19, 2026,* your information could be crucial. According to preliminary accounts, the vehicle involved may have been either a *Toyota Tundra or a Toyota Highlander.
“No detail is insignificant,” Gloria emphasized. “What may seem small to you could be the missing piece needed to secure justice. We seek clearer, verifiable details—the vehicle’s colour, distinguishing features, or license plate number. Anything that can help identify the perpetrator.”
CCTV Footage Could Be Key
Property owners and business operators between Omega Junction and Okilton Junction with functional CCTV systems are being called upon to check their recordings. Your footage could serve as critical evidence and be the bridge between grief and justice.
“Let this not be just another story that fades into silence,” Gloria urged. “Let this be the moment a community stood up. Let this be the moment justice prevailed. Let this be the moment we proved that every life matters. Because this could have been anybody.”
A Call to Conscience
The appeal extends beyond witnesses. If the individuals responsible have any conscience left, they are being called upon to step forward and answer for their actions. And if they fail to do so, the community is determined to ensure they are brought to account.
“This is a call, not just to witnesses, but to every conscience that still believes in what is right,” Gloria stated.

Justice Must Prevail
Moses Peace deserved better. She deserved to return home safely from church. She deserved to live out her full potential. Now, she deserves justice.
As Nigerians, we cannot allow reckless driving, especially by convoys who often act with impunity, to continue claiming innocent lives. This tragedy is a stark reminder that anyone could be the next victim if we remain silent.
Let us stand together as a community. Let us prove that in Nigeria, every life matters and justice can prevail when we unite for what is right.
