Yobe: Four Feared Dead, Others Injured In Fatal Road Crash by NaijaCover(op): 5:58pm On Mar 01, 2025
Four persons are feared dead and seven others injured in a road crash along the Damaturu-Maiduguri highway.

The accident occurred in the early hours of Saturday.

It was gathered that the 18-seater bus belonging to Borno Express was en route to Maiduguri from Abuja.

First-line emergency responders who made it to the scene have evacuated the corpses as well as the injured victims to the State Specialist Hospital, Damaturu.

Recall that last Tuesday, DAILY POST had reported that ten people were confirmed dead in a fatal road accident involving a cement truck along the Damaturu-Maiduguri road in Yobe State.

The accident occurred when the truck, loaded with cement and passengers, lost control and tumbled into a ditch.

We need to get rid of small buses traveling interstate. In the US, na 50 seater buses and so on like Greyhound, Peter Pan dey make these types of trips. How many of these huge buses get into these fatal accidents? I would love a stat on that.

My Dad used to take those big buses to Lagos...Mass Transit and will travel at least once a month and did these for decades. I think it was only once the Bus got into an accident, and it was very sad that the others did not travel. But these small buses, its like every week.

If the government is trying to ban big petrol tanks, they should also ban these small buses. Let them travel within the city...not long distances within or outside the states.

Blame the drivers for reckless driving.
Blame the government for not providing good roads .

Yes ...and very well trained drivers. How many of those bigger buses going to SE have been in accidents ...not sure why they phased some of them out. In UK, most of their buses are bigger buses...both within the metro areas, within the cities and across the cities ...even the ones that will pick you to and from hotels are at least 25+ seaters. We need to phase out these 10 seater buses. Track the accidents...na them.

Please stay in school...I am not offering classes here. If you cannot reason as to why other countries picked bigger buses...google is your friend.
