30 FEARED DEAD, SEVERAL INJURED IN OGUN EXPRESS WAY ACCIDENT

An accident scene

About 30 persons were feared dead  and several injured in an auto crash that occurred at Mobalufun junction, in Odogbolu Local Government of Ogun State on Tuesday.  The details of the accident is still skechy but I learnt that a truck loaded with flour rammed into  a Lagos-bound passenger bus. Eyewitnesses said other victims of the accident were traders and some commuters. A lot of people were said to be seriously injured in the crash. Those injured were said to have been rushed to the General Hospital, Ijebu-Ode and the Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital, Sagamu, for treatment.

A source said as at 7p.m yesterday the remains of seven persons, including a pregnant woman, had been deposited in the hospital morgue.

Dear God, please save us from this road accidents. I don't even know who to blame; the government for not fixing so many bad roads or the drivers for over speeding?
