people lost their lives on Thursday, February 25, following a fatal

and ran over some people believed to be road-side traders. According to
Tribune Online, five other people sustained various degrees of injures
following the accidents, while others scampered to safety. Residents of
Akoda area said the number of casualties could have been more than five,
but the timely arrival of ambulance and treatment of others who
sustained injuries saved some people from losing their lives. The Head
of Operation, Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Osun Sector Command, Mr

caused by over-speeding that could not be managed when the vehicle
involved lost control. He disclosed that two male adults, one female
adult and two children (male and female), were the major victims as at
press time. Adewumi added that four people were injured while one person
who was trapped in the crash, escaped unhurt.
