Our emergency services in Nigeria and the way we treat dead accident victims is very very appalling.

Failed infrastructure, narrow bending roads that can't accommodate all the drivers. Impatient reckless idiot drivers, recipe for destruction. The perils of everday life. I hope the driver sees these bodies in his nightmares I hope the young child stops by his room every night to say hello

There’s a difference between drivable roads and safe roads. Most roads in Nigeria are not safe. Either too Narrow, or sharp bends, and many other things

No good roads
No safe roads
No emergency response and care
No respect for the dead
And No body bags!

True.

But their priority na coastal road, when the existing ones are death traps.

My prayer is that, Let the supporters of wickedness and bad administration be the only victims of the effect of bad administration.

No innocent person should bear the effect of some ppls foolishness.

Govt needs to do something about dangote drivers, they are extremely reckless . For them there's no rules on the road. They overtake without minding whether there's on coming vehicle.
So disheartening.

I disagreed wt u on No good roads n No safe roads!
We need proper orientation when it comes to road usage in Nigeria. We have accidents happening in city centers like Abuja. Even Kd-Abuja roads(some years back was very ok). So what will u say in such situations? On safe roads, we are the one that will make d roads safe for our usage. Most drivers(both literates n illiterates) on Nigerian roads dont adhere to road sign, some are not mentally fit to drive in d neighbourhood let alone coming to d highways n so on. RIP to d dead

“Unfortunately, 19 people out of the 22 victims were killed and one injured. The remaining two victims who got rescued by FRSC operatives without injuries survived the crash because they complied with traffic regulations on compulsory use of seatbelt."

this was also mentioned in the report. pls take note of the emphasis made by FRSC

thats because you are seeing letters but not reading them. in this quote I shared with you earlier, FRSC said “Unfortunately, 19 people out of the 22 victims were killed and one injured. The remaining two victims who got rescued by FRSC operatives without injuries survived the crash because they complied with traffic regulations on compulsory use of seatbelt."

the FRSC is laying emphasis on seat belt as the reason people died or survived the accident and not on the carelessness of the driver who drove one way. you can see that in the comment above it says that those who wore seat belts "complied with traffic regulations" meaning that those who died did not comply with traffic regulation. whereas it was the driver who drove one way who did not comply with traffic regulation. how is wearing seat belt compliance with traffic regulation?

Reckless driving caused. The government is not responsible for this one.

Many Nigerians are mad. Many vehicles have phone numbers printed on their bodies to be called to report driver's misconducts. I am not sure Dangote trailers have such numbers printed on them.

But wait oh! Fire engulfed the bus and burnt 19 passengers to death while two passengers that used seatbelts survived. How? Does seatbelt extinguish fire? What kind of report is this? Do you mean the seatbelts kept the two passengers safe and strong enough to escape before fire engulfed the bus? Kindly explain.
Same question dude.. The remaining 19 passengers does have seat belt but refused to wear them? And the two escaped due to wearing their seat belt even though the bus got burnt... Proper explanation Mbok!
