The simple truth is that many, if not most Nigerians, are bad drivers. The bad road, to me, is just a lame excuse for poor driving judgement and non-roadworthy vehicles. I once lived in South Africa where the highways are of very high quality, I tell you guys, accidents there are much more worse. So, I technically think in Nigeria, Good roads will cause more accidents while bad roads should reduce such incidences. Good road is the fastest way to encourage speeding to death. |

Why are you calling on God and God to have mercy. And why are you blaming the Govt? Nigerians sef. Irresponsible drivers are responsible FIRST. Though the roads are bad, it is the responsibility of drivers to drive responsibly and obey rules. I do not know the exact circumstances of this incident but I am calling on Nigerians to take responsibility for their lives, quit blaming the government and ask God to help then act responsibly not after praying you are doing 160km/hr and believe "God will help his people" |

VolvoS60: That was 1988, when Wole Soyinka would step out in his Corps Marshall uniform. Then NTA and RSTV Channel 55 (later Channel 22) were the only stations one could watch in those days growing up in Port Harcourt. |

Compliance: Some rccg members coming back from camp had a fatal accident along Akure - Ilesha expressway. Some are already dead by the time we got to the scene. Christians on Nairaland please let's lift up the banners of prayers for God's divine intervention.Damn it!!!!!!!! What other divine intervention, do you need?? God has given us knowledge and resources to make our roads better, but we chose to make our roads death traps!!!!!!! Yet you have the guts to call for divine intervention What else do you want God to do? Anybody calling God here, is plain stewpid!!!!!!!! |

ceasare: @volvos60 : you have said it all until we adopt d Chinese option of death sentence for stealing public funds and negligence of duty from public office holders.if not we keep running in circles till end of time. @volvos60, ceasare and other dimwits who are busy blaming government... What has the government got to do with the accident? Perhaps, the driver of the bus was Goodluck Jonathan or David Mark abi? The driver who was over-speeding should not be held accountable but government right? [size=18pt]It is only lazy people and failures who use Government as an excuse for anything bad that happens.[/size] 2 Likes |

ratiken:Don't be quick to blame others' for their views on issues such as this. Indeed, the condition of that Ibadan /Akure road is horrible putting it mildly. I travel this road every weekend & Mondays. Though currently under maintenance, the current state still leaves much to be desired. 3months ago saw me thanking God for His grace in saving me from.a near accident. 1 Like |

jimmy4x: ^^^^ I have driven on that road too. Several times. I have a question for you sir: Is the road a dual carriageway? I have a reason for asking this question and your response will determine my answer to you. I have addressed the issue of driver's fault/negligence in another post. But I will recap here. Nigerian drivers have roughly the same urges as European, North American, Japanese etc. drivers. We all have things to do and places to go to. We would all drive at 500km/h if we could. The difference is that in these other places, the consequences for death and injury to others (as a result of my negligence or carelessness) are severe. I could be banned from driving for life or do jail time. It is the fear of these consequences that keeps the majority of drivers in these other places in check. Until we get the regulation bit to work properly, the carnage will continue. 3 Likes |

There is no law on God's green earth that says all good things are unworkable in Nigeria. All it takes is a reasoned choice by Nigerians to hold their leaders accountable and to insist that these leaders get the system to work for the good of all. (Failing which, these leaders should prepare for the consequences). How come in 54 yrs there has been NO SINGLE good government? Nigerians have been blaming the govt for 54 years... many of these things can be done by private companies... UK has Transport Research Laboratories for example. Quit blaming the government and govern yourselves! |

Everyone is blaming driver,roads and government,I do nt absolve anyone of blame,the driver will have his fault,roads too are nt encouraging especially that strip of road,from somewhere around IBULE to ILESHA or thereabout,anyone who knws dt road will see how d road was somehow broken or had its asphalt layout somehow scrapped,because of the so called new road construction,I guess the idea was to slow drivers down,yet if u see au fast people are on dt road,yet been slow isn't necessarily the best,all men will die one day,life on this earth is nt forever,but to die like this,this hard,painful,premature,gruesome manner,this violent way,....nooo,....But they all have hope,if they died in Christ,though there mortal bodies perish,they'll live and reign with God,all those who have died are alive somewhere now,its just a transistion,the painful thing about it,is the way,manner and memories they all live behind especially for family and loved ones..and pls OP put age restriction or notice before putting such pictures up,some people are light or faint hearted. |

Federal Road Safety Corp is a failure, mediocre and money spinning machine for the government. They arrest more of private vehicle owners and slam them with fines on very minor offences when they do not understand the bribery code whereas, these commercial and danfo drivers should have been put on serious check because of the number of life they are carrying and their recklessness. In my own safety opinion, when they arrest for brake light offence, they should have an immediate solution, and that is where defaulters will pay heavily for those corrective service. When they arrest for 'no fire extinguisher' they should provide good fire extinguisher at 300% increase of the normal price When they arrest for bad tires or brake failure, they should take the vehicle to their workshop and make sure it is properly fixed before moving an inch Lastly, our roads should be properly fixed, they should advocate and let the government know clearly that our roads are dead traps Instead of all these, all they are interested in is the fine or bribe there is need for overhauling of our FRSC and strict measure on commercial vehicles and drivers if accident will be drastically reduced in this country 2 Likes |

vibrant99: No One is saying anytin about why you have to travel so far for just a crusade?.... Common sense. Infact, why could God not save these people? After all the singing and clapping and dancing in camp!After paying tithes, offerings, vows etc. Is this the best way for 'God' to reward them?
