Two unidentified individuals lost their lives on Monday in a single-vehicle crash along the Isara-Remo/Erimobi Bridge stretch of the Lagos–Ibadan Expressway in Ogun State.
The vehicle involved in the accident was reported to be a Suzuki bus bearing the registration number KRD 194 JW.
Confirming the incident, the spokesperson of the Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Corps, TRACE, Babatunde Akinbiyi, said the victims, who were occupants of the vehicle, died instantly at the scene.
According to Akinbiyi, preliminary findings indicated that excessive speed led the driver to ram into a stationary, broken-down vehicle on the roadway.
He disclosed that the remains of the deceased had been taken to the State General Hospital in Isara-Remo.
The TRACE spokesperson added that the accident vehicle was evacuated from the scene and taken to the Isara-Remo Police Station, where further investigations are ongoing.
