Were they on excursion?

Unregistered vehicle conveying passengers?

How did they drive so close to the dam to the extent of plunging into it?

Could it have been a case of kidnapping gone wrong?

NPF don’t have what it takes to unravel this except by issuing statements.

kangaroo law in Nigeria doesn't apply to Northerners, they don't pay custom charges, they don't Register cars before use, they Carry overload, and those useless VIO, police, Roadsafety, Custom, will never challenge them but come to South, you will see them flexing power. Useless people mix together. Imagine over ten people died in 4persanger car

Over loaded vehicle. Under normal circumstances, such a vehicle shouldn't take more than 6 occupants including the driver but here it was, occupied by probably 12 or even 13 persons (3 rescued alive, 9 confirmed dead at hospital & possible 1 occupant unaccounted for yet).

FRSC and other relevant agencies have failed in their duties in this regards.
This is how you people keep dragging Nigeria back by not telling the masses the truth. So FRSC should have gone to their homes and carry out brain surgery on them for them to know that is wrong for them to squeeze themselves smoked dishes in that small car right. They more we keep transferring everything to government authorities, the more we are telling them that we are animals that need to be cow around. This is pure stupidity on the people and those alive needs to know that those who died killed themselves by their stupidity so that such won't repeat itself again. If you blame the authorities then those alive won't see anything wrong in what those people did but will only focus on what the authorities fail to do which may not be the case.

My thinking is:

4 occupants in front (1 to the drivers left & two to the right)

4 occupants in the back.

4 occupants packed in the boot.

Total 12.

If indeed an occupant is missing, it means there were either 5 occupants in the back or 5 in the boot.

Those guys don't value their lives especially along that Kano route; it's common sight to see over loaded vehicles on that route.

Good questions, Why would a vehicle just plunge into a dam? Was the driver asleep? Whata tragedy.

Too bad


But how could golf carry so many persons like that...?

Or are my the one missing it? "They discovered that an unregistered Golf Wagon car from Kano, heading to Katsina, plunged into Fada dam. Twelve unidentified persons were rescued on the spot," Nine died on the spot, was the car conveying 12 persons to Katsina?


Overloading reduces chances of survival in cases like this.


I was thinking the same and i figure: 2 are kids that will be lapped and its a wagon so it would have been 4 at the back.. 4 in the middle and 2 in front.

That much weight alone would make a vehicle handle unusually

Spot on. And you wonder what is the use of FRSC in all of this. Overloading is a daily occurrence on Northern roads. And those Golfs are moving coffins. They over speed alot, always in a rush.

Going by this your warped analogy, Nigeria's security forces should leave armed bandits/kidnappers/armed robbers/criminal gangs etc alone since they cannot be followed to their various hideouts to "carry out brain surgery on them for them to know that it is wrong for them to" be kidnapping, killing, maiming, raping and doing whatever evils it is they do.

The more we keep transferring everything to the security forces, the more we are telling these terrorists and their likes that they're animals that need to be "cow around".
I hope you see how this all makes sense, huh? Okbye!

The road is very close to the dam. I've passed through that road severally when I was serving in Kano.
