The convoy of Kogi state Governor, Yahaya Bello, on Monday involved in a “serious” road crash, the Federal Road Safety Corps has said.

FRSC Sector Commander, Federal Capital Territory, Mr Wobin Gora, confirmed the development in Abuja.

Gora, who said he was yet to get full details of the incident, however, confirmed that the Governor was not travelling with the convoy where the accident occurred.

The accident which occurred few meters away from the gate of University of Abuja after the convoy ran into a motorcyclist.

An eyewitness, however, said the convoy was involved in a very serious accident as a result of over speeding.

 

“On my way, I just saw their vehicle drive past me on very high speed. The way they sped past me nearly threw my car off the highway; that was after general market. However, not up to five minutes afterwards, I saw two of their cars in a big gutter beside the highway.

 

“I stopped to inquire what happened and I learnt a motorcycle crossed them, but because of the high speed, they couldn’t control the car and that resulted in the accident. So, what I saw was that two guys — one on the bike and the other in a white bus — were left unattended to. Meanwhile, the rescue team focused on those in the entourage of the convoy and attended to them immediately, but left those two others unattended to.

“Another thing I saw was that there were three guys that were trying to capture the incident and some men in black gave them the beating of their lives. I was able to capture the incident because I used the background camera on my phone.

 

“Another guy that came to plead with the rescue team to use their ambulance to assist the two guys was also beaten mercilessly. From what I saw, they were seriously wounded. However, no one died,” the witness said.
