On Sunday, a mishap claimed the lives of two persons shortly after the Iperu bridge on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

Florence Okpe, the Public Education Officer of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) in Ogun, during a briefing in Abeokuta, said a woman sustained life-threatening injuries in the ugly incident.

Okpe said the accident occurred at 2:38 p.m., attributing it to speeding and loss of control, which led the driver to run into a drainage by the roadside.

”One vehicle was involved with registration number JJJ 25 HS, a Toyota car, silver colour,” she said.

Okpe said the injured victim was taken to Victory Hospital, Ogere, for medical attention while the deceased were deposited at FOS morgue, Ipara.

According to her, the sector commander, Anthony Uga, has advised motorists to drive responsibly and shun excessive speed.
