The Osun Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Corps, Sunday Adebayo, has blamed speeding and dangerous driving for a road crash that killed three people and injured about 20 others along the Ife-Ilesa Expressway in Osun State on Saturday.
Adebayo, who confirmed the casualty figure during a telephone interview with Sunday PUNCH, said the two vehicles involved had a head-on collision.
Advising road users against acts that could lead to accidents, Adebayo urged drivers not to engage in acts that would lead to avoidable loss of lives.
“If you look at the road structure at the time of the occurrence, you see that there is no reason for that high fatality. Nigerians need to change their attitudes on the road. Excessive speeding is killing. The accident happened due to over-speeding and dangerous driving.
