Four dead in lone car crash on Sagamu-Benin road

Four people, three men and one woman, lost their lives on Friday in a lone accident involving a Toyota Camry car at Area J3 on the Sagamu-Benin expressway.

Mrs Florence Okpe, the Spokesperson of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) in Ogun confirmed the incident to newsmen in Abeokuta.

Okpe said the accident happened at 11:40am and was caused by excessive speed on the part of the driver which led to loss of control.

She said the vehicle with registration number BDG 184 FY swerved off the road and somersaulted into a swamp.

“A total of four persons, three men and one woman were involved and they all died from the lone crash.

“The suspected cause of the lone crash was excessive speed which led to the loss of control and the vehicle swerved off the road and somersaulted into a swamp,” she said.

Okpe said the deceased were taken to the Ijebu-Ode General Hospital morgue.

The Sector Commander, Anthony Uga, advised motorists taking long journeys to always have 15 minutes rest after every four hours drive to avoid fatigue while driving and also go within the stipulated speed limit.

He condoled with the families of the victims, urging them to contact FRSC Ogbere for more information about the crash.
