Two people have died in a road crash that happened on the Sekona-Gbongan Expressway, opposite Sekona Police Station around 4 pm, the Osun State Command of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), has said.
A statement issued by the command’s spokesperson, Mrs Agnes Ogungbemi, on Monday, blamed the accident on non-compliance with traffic regulations.
According to the statement, a green Toyota Highlander Jeep, with number plate EKY 514 BH, collided with an unregistered motorcycle, which resulted in the death of two persons.
The statement noted: “Three males were involved in the accident, two lost their lives on the spot, and the third was severely injured.
“The corpses were deposited in the morgue of Ladoke Akintola Teaching Hospital while the vehicles were towed to Sekona Police Station.”
It stated that FRSC officials had been able to clear the scene of the accident to avoid gridlock within the area.
While urging road users to obey traffic rules to prevent road crashes, the FRSC threatened to arrest violators.
