No fewer than 50 people have been confirmed dead in a ghastly multiple road crash that occured this evening at the Ijebu-Ode roundabout of the notorious Benin-Ore Expresseway.In the accident, an articulated vehicle driver was said to have lost control of the vehicle possibly due to brake failure, causing it to ram into by-standers. Street hawkers, Okada riders and even passenger-buses were not spared in the accident, at the end of which over 50 bodies lay liveless.
"It was a terrible day. I have never seen anything like that in my life", an eye witness exclaimed. This is indeed a colossal waste. This accident happen due to careless attitude of the trailer driver, he continued.
As at the time of filling this report, rescue operations are still going on.
