The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Kogi State Sector Command, has confirmed that no fewer than 15 persons have been killed and five others seriously injured following an auto crash along the Lokoja-Abuja highway on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The Sector Commander of the FRSC in the State, Stephen Dawulung, who confirmed the accident to journalists in Lokoja, said a J-5 Boxer Bus and a petrol tanker were involved in the crash at Koton-Karfe along Lokoja-Abuja highway at 7:30 am on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

He added that the five injured persons were rushed to Ideal Hospital at Koton-Karfe for immediate medical attention while the remains of the dead victims had been deposited at the Morgue of Federal Medical Centre (FMC) in Lokoja.<\/p>\n

The FRSC<\/a> boss blamed the accident on violation of traffic rules.<\/p>\n

Dawulung said: \u201cThe bus driver left his lane and was driving in the opposite direction at high speed only to have a head on collision with an oncoming petrol tanker.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank God the tanker which was laden with petroleum products did not go up in flames, which could have been more devastating and worrisome.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe bus was carrying iron cramps with 17 passengers, 15 of which were terribly squeezed and choked to death during the collision.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
