I heared July has the highest number of road accident in the world. RIP to the dead. SMH

THESE ARE THE KIND OF THINGS FRSC ARE SUPPOSE TO CHECK MATE NOT STREET CHECKING OR DRIVERS LICENSE

vanariso: I think this report is untrue. I went by this road on Saturday on my way to Oshogbo and back on Sunday on way to lagos. The Fuel was overturned and fuel was gushing out from a puncture. Apparent this accident occurred aand the truck didn't burst into flames. The driver,I guess, and one other guy were scooping out feul from the puncture and saving somewhere. I went by this accident and I thought what are this guys doing. The risk of ignitionvia any spark is real and waiting to occur. These never put a caution by to warn passing-by vehicles to slow down and then I prayed no car would over-speed and slam the breaks juct by this accident....and I guess if u add the story above of a car loosing ts propeller and causing the igniton to this....u can figure out who to blame....

I pray the dead rest in peace....and we should most importantly often do the right thing....Its a shame how we Nigerians behave..

I weep for this loss.....

That is the problem with our newspaper report. Most times they give a distorted report about happenings. Road accident in Nigeria will be reduced to the barest minimum the day those tanker drivers start behaving like "kings of the road". RIP to those who lost their lives suddenly. somebody said Nigeria = Hell. I believe.

Omg! rip :-(

May their souls rest in Peace.

God have mercy on us. This is not a good news for the beginning of a new month. RIP to the dead.

flexya: Not quite 10lanes but yes, the plan is to av it widened. However problem exists elsewhere in terms of the sheer volume of unworthy vehicles plyin our roads. Most of the commercial vehicles in Oyo State need to be in junk yards. How else will a propeller fall off a bus. Another issue is the attitude of the drivers union (NURTW), who r more concerned about extorting money than ensuring that the vehicles for their members r road worthy. Do u see racketty NUPENG tankers? If ur vehicle doesnt pass certain checks, u shouldnt leave the garage.

May the soul of the departed rest in peace.

Well said

CrazyMan: I read somewhere that a budget was made to expand that road to a 10 lane express way...It would be great if the government can actualize this goal so the tankers and trailers can have a lane reserved for them and refrain from colliding with commuter buses, and it would go a long way in ensuring that the lives of law abiding citizens are protected from any reoccurrence in the future.

RIP to the dead.

It's not a fuel tanker accident man! The report says the propeller of the bus hit its own fuel tank and it went up in flames. Doesn't stop the Govt from expanding the road but get the fact straight

RIP to the late folks

platinumricky: this is gruesome....

Oh.wht a pity.RIP GOd save us ooo

CLASSMAN: THESE ARE THE KIND OF THINGS FRSC ARE SUPPOSE TO CHECK MATE NOT STREET CHECKING OR DRIVERS LICENSE

FRSC AND VIO ARE BUNCH OF MISCREANTS AND MEDIOCRES.
THEY OVERLOOK MAJOR THING AND CAPITALISE ON MINOR
THEY MOSTLY ARREST PRIVATE CAR OWNERS AND LEAVE RECKLESS AND RICKETY COMMERCIAL VEHICLES TO GO SCOTT FREE AFTER COLLECTING 'SOMETHING' FROM THEM. THOSE GUYS DEY COLLECT BRIBE DIE OOOOOOOOOOO.

May their souls rest in peace,

may God have mercy on us ,

May we start to learn some little safety precautions,

May people begin to see and know that some of these accidents could be avoided , if some one can be a 30% safety conscious ,
*Since this TANKER was STATIONED, and the petrol (not diesel) was leaking a DISTANT warning was EMINENT*
* If a distant warning was given OVER-SPEEDING & IGNITING acts should have been curtail*
* Any car that is not worthy of operating on the Highway should not be pitied*
How much of "God have mercy" will bring back the Lost lives, when only little PRECAUTIONS can go a long way . Wake -Up .

May the souls of d departed through the mercy of God rest in peace

Sad

Then on your ten lane this bus would be sharing with other private vehicles, the propeller from the bus would have smashed into another car with possible casualties if not fatalaties. Your thinking na wah o.

Sad! Journey well to the dead.

na wa ooo..people just dey die like insect for naija

Rest in peace to de dead. My guy, even if yu make de roads 10 lanes, there will still be accidents on our roads. Reasons being that some de drivers don't give a f**k about dangers of overspeeding. Some of them drink b4 driving, while some neglect safety practices on de road.

...onwu amaghi nga onye ukwu ooo!!. Rip to the dead. we will all join the dead very soon. Is a matter of hu goes 1st.

I refuse me, my friend, family and even enemies being a victim of such circumstances. Amen. This is horrible

smartchoice: Ha

close ya mouth jare

God help us.............

Horus: An investigation is mandatory to determines the circumstances of this accident.

My brother, I don tire for Nigeria ways o, our roads have been reduced to death traps and I wonder how our leaders feel when they hear of their citizens being claimed by unnecessary deaths like this.

Our major highways should not be less than 35 lanes on each side of the road and lets see the effect it will have on incessant road crashes..

****my take***
