It was quite a gory sight yesterday morning as a Toyota Hiace bus belonging to Akwa Ibom Commercial Transport Stakeholders Association crashed into the newly completed Nwaniba Water Fountain located at Nwaniba Road by Edet Akpan Junction in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital.

As at the time of this report, we could not see the driver or any passengers of the bus but it is believed that whosoever drove the bus was either tipsy or drunk.

The time of this accident could not also be ascertained. The accident might have happened between 2-6am on Sunday.

However, traces of blood could be seen around the bus meaning that someone may have sustained some level of injury in the fatal crash.

We also spotted a packet of Benson & Hedges Cigarette near the bus, meaning someone was high!

It is also believed that the 'Father Christmas' figure which was placed by the water fountain as part of the Christmas decoration took to his heels on sighting the bus! We could see his damaged sledge and other metals which we think was also part of the Christmas decoration.

The bus however was seriously damaged and part of the water fountain ripped apart as a result of the collision.

Yes! Christmas is a time to celebrate but we should watch it and be very careful! After all, it's Jesus' birthday and not yours!

We want to see you in 2014 oo! If you must drink, don't drive! If you must drive, please don't drink!

Check out some pictures of this crash!
