A tanker carrying P.M.S
product probably from Ilorin, Kwara State. Today had a lone crashed
along Jebba - Mokwa express road, the accident occurred around 4pm
today. 31/10/13 the caused of the accident can not be unconnected
with the over-speeding of the driver. he can not get total control of
the tanker when he got to a sharp corner while he was driving at a top
speed, all efforts by the driver to get the tanker to halt after one of
the back tyre had bursted proved abortive. The trailer skidded and fell
but within a twinkle of an eye the tanker exploded and behold a big and
thick smoke covered all the area. unfortunately nobody could help the
poor driver, everybody was scared because of the fire, so the driver
and his two friends were trapped inside the tanker. they all got burnt
along with the tanker as everybody at the scene were looking helplessly
as the tanker cont.s to burn. even the FRSC men that came can do nothing but just to look and called for police men to come and join them. here are pix i was able to took b4 ma fone starts sayin ba3 too low for radio services. we spent more than hours at the spot b4 we could proceed with our journey.
