The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) says 14 people escaped death in a road crash that occurred on the Gbongan-Ibadan expressway in Osun.
FRSC sector commander Henry Benamesia disclosed this in a statement by the command’s spokesperson, Agnes Ogungbemi, on Monday.
Mr Benamesia said the crash occurred at the Orile-Owu junction AP filling station, two kilometres to Sasa bridge, at about 9:31 p.m. on Monday.
He said a Hyundai SUV with registration number LND 108 GL had a head-on collision with another vehicle, an ash Toyota Sequoia with registration number ABC 403 HP.
“The accident occurred due to speeding, leading to the loss of control by one of the vehicles. Also, 14 persons were involved without any casualties (sic). We have 11 males and three females, and the injured victims among them have been taken to Lowo Clinic Gbongan for further medical treatment,” said Mr Benamesia.
According to him, the FRSC has cleared all gridlock within the scene of the accident to avoid any inconvenience.
“I want to enjoin motorists to avoid excessive speeding and obey traffic regulations,” the sector commander stated.
