Seven persons died when a passenger
bus collided with a truck on the
Ibadan-Ogbomoso road on Sunday.
Also in Ogbomoso, a truck loaded with crashed in the Taki area of the town, spilling its content while residents of the area scooped fuel before security men arrived at the scene to disperse them. Eyewitness said apart from those who died in the accident, several others sustained varying degrees of injuries.
The eyewitness explained that the
commercial bus had attempted to
overtake a Sports Utility Vehicle along the bad portion of the narrow road but failed to accomplish the task before being faced with an oncoming truck.
The resident, who identified himself as
Tayo, said, “The bus was coming from
Lagos, heading towards Ilorin. The
driver made an attempt to overtake the SUV but it seemed the SUV driver
increased his speed, putting the bus
driver and passengers in the danger
of colliding with the truck.
“The bus driver could not avoid the
head-on collision, which resulted in the death of six passengers
immediately. Another one died during
the rescue mission by some people. It
was a gory scene.”
He added that while the rescue
operation was still on, traffic was at a standstill for more than one hour on
the road as security agents made
attempts to evacuate the vehicles
from the road.
