16 newly recruited police officers were burnt to death while
six others were critically injured yesterday Sunday January 20th when the
18-seater Hummer bus they were traveling in collided with a Mercedes Benz 190
in Omu Aran, Kwara State. The victims were said to be on their way to Nasarawa
State when the accident occurred at about 10 yesterday morning.
The Mercedes Benz car, with regitration number AC 345 DKA
had a locked steering and in an attempt by the driver to free it, the vehicle
veered off to the other side of the road and the bus rammed into it. The bus
carrying the police officers hit an electric pole and a house then burst into
flame, killing most of its occupants. The driver of the Benz was not injured in
the accident. The police are looking for him...
