24 killed in auto crashes, 8 injured

It was a harvest of deaths from road accidents, yesterday, as a total of 24 people perished in two separate accidents that occurred on the Lagos-Ibadan and Benin-Lagos expressways.

In the Ibadan crash, no fewer than six persons lost their lives, while eight others sustained serious injuries.

Along the Benin-Lagos express road, a Toyota Hiace bus and a truck loaded with gravel were involved in a head-on collusion, killing 18 passengers.The incident occurred near Okada, Ovia North-East Local Government Area of Edo State.

It led to a serious gridlock as passengers and drivers made frantic effort to save the life of the victims.

These accidents are avoidable and they keep happening.  When will our drivers learn?
