Jos – Eight persons died instantly while two others were critically injured in an auto crash which occurred on Jos-Lamingo road in Plateau State.

Confirming the incident on Sunday, the State Public Enlightenment Officer of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Peter Longsan, said the accident occurred on Saturday.

“The crash involved two vehicles, a Toyota Hiace bus, and a Honda Pilot Jeep. The number of people involved was 10, all onboard, out of which eight died (three adult males, four adult females, and one child) while two others sustained injuries,” he added

“The two injured were taken to the Jos University Teaching Hospital by an FRSC Rescue Team for medical attention while the remains of the deceased were deposited at the old JUTH.

“The unfortunate incident happened as a result of excessive speed by one of the drivers, which led to the loss of control and resulted in a head-on collision of the two vehicles.”
