THREE DEAD, OTHERS INJURED IN ACCIDENT ALONG LAGOS-IBADAN EXPRESS ROAD ON MONDAY MORNING

Three persons have been confirmed dead in a road crash accident that occurred about 5:45am this Monday morning along the popular Lagos-Ibadan expressway, which involved four male and two female adults.

Confirming the incident, the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) said two men and one woman died, while the remaining passengers sustained injuries.

FRSC spokesperson in Ogun, Florence Okpe, said the accident involved a Toyota Sienna bus marked, DKP60LG.

The Sienna bus was said to have engaged in speeding, which Okpe said led to loss of control, saying it was eventually “brushed” by a tanker.

The FRSC said the injured victims have been taken to Idera Hospital, Sagamu, while the deceased were deposited at the hospital’s morgue.

Meanwhile, the Sector Commander of the FRSC in Ogun, Ahmed Umar, has commiserated with the crash victims, advising them to stop speeding.
