The deceased were placed in a Sagamu mortuary, while the injured victims were transported to a private hospital.
The Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Corps, Commander Anthony Uga, cautioned the driving public, advising them to avoid driving against traffic (one way) and to drive cautiously to protect their lives and the lives of other road users.
He restated that the FRSC is still dedicated to establishing a safer driving environment and providing safer services, and that in order to do this, it needs everyone’s help.
