There was a "fatal accident"

Thank God no life was lost.
However, I want to bring to your attention the usage of the word "Fatal accident" you use it when there is loss of life. You can use "ghastly" to describe the seriousness of the accident but no loss of life.

NB: FYI

THE POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY OF EVERY ACCIDENT LIES ON THE SPEED AT WHICH U ARE DRIVING. NIGERIANS SHOULD BE CONSCIOUS OF THE FACT THAT WE HAVE ONLY ONE LIFE.
Re: Deadly Accident At Maitama Junction In Abuja Nigeria (photos) by celemel(m): 10:38pm On Nov 04, 2015
I was at the scene (an eye-witness). Info is not factually completely correct as narrated by OP. Below is what I saw.

1. The accident happened along Kubwa Express, (on the expressway) opposite Aso Delight Bakery, close to Minister's Hill, NOT Maitama Junction
2. The nearest junction (on that side of the expresswa) is NICON junction, about a kilometer away
3. The cause was someone who tried to cross the expressway by foot (ignoring the footbridge at Gishiri junction, like we Nigerians do always). 4. A red mercedes c200 car at top speed suddenly saw the deranged man, swerved (to avoid killing him) and applied full brakes. The car skidded off the road, somersaulted and smashed roof-down in the gutter separating the expressway from the service lane.
4. Another car (old Toyota Carina II) rammed into the Benz from behind, also trying to dodge.
5. Two occupants of the Benz (husband and wife I suppose) were rescued alive with injuries and evacuated by NEMA ambulance to Maitama General Hospital
6. The second car's driver (sole occupant) was not injured.
7. The deranged man was not injured too.
The accident was not fatal or deadly, but was a very SERIOUS accident which held down traffic for some hours.
8. Over-speeding on the expressway is a very relative term, difficult to ascertain. Expressways are designed for speed. The reason it is called express.

Hope no life lost?

Even with the concise nature of the story, you still did not see "No life was lost at the scene of the accident..."
My dear, try and read it again.




No ills intended, though.

omg but in aother news Is this not a conspiracy why will the apc senators be the one to reject the payment of 5000 naira monthly allowance to unemployment youth?. Did they forget that it was baba buhari and papa osinbanjo that make that promise.
President muhammad buhari and VP osinbanjo during their campaign make the above promise to nigerians , they promised that unemployed graduates and poorest Nigerians will receive at least 5000 naira as monthly allowance., this was the promise made before the election.
What transpired today in the senate will really shock many nigerian, the motion for the payment of 5000 naira as monthly allowcontinue reading

What happened to placing comments on the right thread...
For consciousness sake, this thread is for the "fatal (in OP's words) accident along Maitama road and not APC n PDP House of Senate palava.

No life was lost and yet you call it fatal?

Are you a student?

Are you a graduate?

If you work, which company employed you?

Shame!

It's a ghastly accident , not a fatal accident. In fatal accidents, people always die.

something could be fatal, yet someone come out unscathed!
Some diseases are fatal, but not everyone dies after suffering from such fatal diseases.
Fatal means: that can cause death.
That accident above can cause death.
But nobody died this time around.
It is fatal anyway.
Op is correct my guy!
Before I forget, thank God for saving their lives.

Or, maintenance of cars and roads or lack thereof we will never know. Glad no loss of life

Totee9:
Are those vehicles certified before they're let in or sold in the country ? That may be the reason for faulty brakes and other internal problems causing all these accidents.
