This is so sad. Various passengers were killed in a fatal accident today along an expressway in Aba, Abia state. The victims who were travelling in a Sienna bus ran into a container truck along the highway.
According to reports, the impact of the accident was so much that almost all the car occupants (if not all) were killed on the spot.
The fatal accident caused a huge gridlock in the area as many residents and motorists stopped at the scene.
Just few months ago, six persons were killed in an auto crash involving a truck and a commercial bus in Abia state.
The truck was said to have crushed the bus as they struggled for the right of way at a dilapidated portion of the road at Amavo junction, Osisioma Ngwa council area of Abia State.
The bus loaded with about 15 passengers was damaged beyond repairs as men of the Federal Road Safety Corps, and sympathizers, struggled to separate the dead from the injured.
