Just imagine how they died, they went to welcome a governor undecided..... Even their ancestors won't be happy with them when they arrive at the other side.


When will the masses have sense?





Anyways, RIP to them.

another accident involving golf cars in the north.

the drivers drive as if they are running for their lives.

unfortunately, federal road safety commission is not interested in enlightening drivers on road safety.

it will rather deploy men on the road to obstruct traffic for revenue

Many Muslims forbids alcohol but their love for hard drugs is high especially in Northern Nigeria. antichristian can testify.

RIP to the dead and quick recovery to the injured.

See eh! Driving recklessly is not by having drivers license or not. This year is my 20yrs of driving and I have done drivers license twice. And honestly speaking, apart from minor scratches inside traffic or thereabouts. I haven't had any major accident. Currently I don't have my license, but that will not make me drive recklessly. So it's not by having license or not.

One of my friend died from the incident at Ringim LGA (my hometown).
The other pic was when the jigawa state governor visited him in the hospital yesterday. And he was pronounced dead earlier this morning.
