Thirty passengers have been burnt to death in an auto crash that occurred in the Odigbo Local Council Area of Ondo State.

The incident occurred on Saturday, when two commercial buses had a head-on collision and burst into flames at the Onipetesi axis along the Ore/Lagos Expressway.

With 32 passengers involved in the accident, 28 were burnt beyond recognition while two survivors rescued with serious injuries died before getting to the hospital.

Two other passengers are still receiving treatment.

According to sources, the accident was caused by excessive speeding on the part of the drivers.

While confirming the incident, the Ondo State Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Samuel Ibitoye, said a preliminary investigation showed one of the vehicles drove against traffic.

Ibitoye, who urged drivers to exercise caution, ensure proper vehicle maintenance and avoid reckless driving, encouraged passengers to speak out against unsafe driving practices, emphasising that road safety is a shared responsibility.

Nigeria institutions are not working.

Frequent accidents means the govt agencies responsible for road safety are asleep

It is mostly individual irresponsibility that causes most of this accidents.

According to sources, the accident was caused by excessive speeding on the part of the drivers.

O Lord.

What a bad news.

May the Lord forgive their shortcomings and grant them rest.

Clarion call to Christians, We need to preach the good news to people more, so that we can depopulate the abyss of hell, and increase heaven

No one knows the next day. May the Lord keep guiding us

News like this should send shock down the nation's spine but we have become so used to hearing about death news that we have become less reactive.

Sometimes, the passengers keep quite when drivers are reckless. We should learn to always speak up when these illiterate drivers are being reckless
