Mr Clement Oladele, the Sector Commander of  Federal Road Safety Commission  (FRSC) in Ogun, confirmed the incident  to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday in Abeokuta.

“We went to the scene and met the crash which involved a commercial bus, a car and a truck.

“A Mazda bus with registration number SMK 800 XN and a Volkswagen car with registration number KTU 479 AS  were travelling to Lagos before they rammed into the truck.

“The accident was caused by speeding and it involved 15 males and eight  females in which one male in  the bus died and 21 others were  injured.

“Motorists should desist from speeding,  especially at night because visibility is limited.

“Broken down trucks should always use reflective signs so that oncoming drivers will be able to see them,’’ he said.

The sector commander said that corpse of the dead had been deposited at Itori General Hospital in Ewekoro where  the injured were being treated.
