15 injured, 1 dead as truck falls on bus in Abia

Tragedy incident that happened along Alaoji, Aba, Abia State, has left 15 persons injured while one was confirmed dead, as truck fell on a bus concerning 18 passengers.

Wakadaily gathered that sympathizers rescued the injured from the wreckage of the bus. Some of the critically injured were taken away in an ambulance to the hospital.

An eyewitness who spoke withe the Vangard said, “The driver of the bus loaded with 18 passengers and the container laden truck were negotiating the big pothole opposite the Alaoji spare parts market. They were moving side by side negotiating the big pothole when the container on the truck fell on the bus. 15 passengers were critically injured, 2 had no injury while one of them died as he was badly hit by the container.

“This accident that killed the young man and got many people injured was avoidable if the only government did a palliative work by just using stones to fill the potholes. Only one lane of the expressway is in use because the other one is no longer passable. There are too many containers that leave Onne into Aba daily. The condition of the road is too bad. Container trucks are falling on the road daily. Many people have lost their lives and properties due to container accidents caused by bad roads.”

An effort to reach the state police at the time of this report was abortive.
