? 16 vehicles were involved in the accident caused by a truck ? Traffic gridlock as impatient Nigerians block both sides of the highway
Not even hell had greater fury than the traffic situation within the Karu axis of the Nyanya ? Maraba road which leads to Keffi, Nassarawa State.
16 vehicles driven mainly by civil servants, traders and other road users and some with passengers, were involved in a terrible accident less than one hour ago, leading to the death of three people while scores of others, who were wounded, have been rushed to the hospitals.
Eye witnesses told Daily Times that the accident was caused by a truck driver that lost control of his vehicle, hitting some cars that in turn smashed on others.
16 cars in all were involved.
But beyond the accident itself, impatient motorists, who could not endure the temporary halt of traffic as officers of the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) made frantic efforts to clear the road, decided to follow the opposite side of the highway leading to total gridlock that may see some people sleep on the road till Wednesday morning.
