Very unfortunate.

Some of these accidents are avoidable, compliance with simple traffic rules saves lives, the more reason we need to respect instructions from traffic regulation agencies like FRSC.

Relevant authorities also need to expedite actions on any ongoing road project especially on the busy roads.

Having said that, may the souls of the departed rest in peace.

God have mercy. Thank God for safe trip today ooo. Some drivers can be so reckless and refuses to take simple corrections. Today while I was travelling the driver was speeding so recklessly and overtaking all the tanker drivers early this morning. But I kept telling him to take it slowly but he never listened to me instead he increased his speed with a very bonny and strong face. I was so scared altru the journey but thank God we all had a safe trip. Even tanker drivers where equally warning him. Some drivers are possess. Please always pray for drivers before you travel even though many of them that died today still prayed for journey mercy. God please we shall never die young in JESAUS NAME AMEN. I LOVE YOU JESUS CHRIST.

Petroleum products still move by road for short distance but freight moving are regular and that's is why there is less accident.

FG should fast develop alternative means of transportation, especially for petroleum product, the pressure on the road is increasing fast, in other countries, petroleum cargo are moved via rail, pipelines, and seaports.

this okene road is too narrow for God sake,I over heared that government wanted to expanded the road but people of okene refused,by claiming those ancient building by road sides belong to their forefathers so in a nutshell nobody can demolished it to expands the road enough for travellers.if its true bcus for every lies their must be an elements of truth. I think they have achieved their aim,now they should sit down and start eating those roasted corpses so they can be for happy life.
okene people are hostile people that's why they could not develope more than what they're till today.

Men of the state Fire Service Department, who arrived the scene at about 2:20 pm, could not to really help due to lack of water in their vehicles.
why go there when they know there is no water in their tanker?.

RIP to the dead.

Very dangerous route starting from Edo all the way to Lokoja.
So sad the Govt. will still turn blind eye to it. They prefer budgeting money for boreholes that will end up in their pockets

Can you start a petition to your senator and representative to have a Bill that addresses this your nice initiative?
I hope that you know that the NASS is part of the federal government?

This isn't a case of traffic rule or regulations. That bad portion of the road has been causing accidents ever since and nothing has been done to fix it. A minimum of 2 accidents occur there every week. Trailers have been colliding with each other there. In fact the smell from bags of fish feed of the last one hasn't finish oozing before this happened. Toh bad this one just had the most casualties. We have never been proactive in this country. Gitto construction company should be called back to come and finish the death trap they call a Federal road.

Senator that blocks you when you air a view different from his. Is that one a senator? They block you if you are not singing their praises. Likewise the sanctimonious El-rufai.

Thank God for your life ohh...were you the only one asking the driver to stop over speeding? what were the response or countenance of the other passengers?
please next time tell the driver before the journey to drive safely..dont also fail to engage other passengers to warn the driver in case he over-speeds....
Most of those driving are either influenced by drugs,emotional problems at home or just trying to make quick money....!
Once again thank God for journey mercies!!
