Tragedy struck on Friday morning at the Odumodu Junction by Nteje, along the Onitsha-Awka Expressway in Anambra State, as a road accident claimed the lives of at least five individuals.
The accident involved two vehicles, namely a Mitsubishi L300 commercial bus with registration number XE245AWK and a commercial Daf/Leyland truck with registration number T-19094LA. Reports indicate that the incident occurred around 7:30 a.m., and it involved ten people comprising three adult males and seven adult females.
The fatal accident unfolded when the container of the truck toppled onto the commercial bus while the driver was attempting to navigate through a damaged section of the road. The two vehicles were en route to different destinations, with one headed to Awka and the other to Onitsha.
Tragically, five victims, all females, lost their lives in the accident, while two adult males and two adult females sustained various injuries. Remarkably, one adult male emerged from the incident unscathed.
An eyewitness described the unfortunate event, explaining that both vehicles arrived at the spot simultaneously, and due to the truck’s weight, the container toppled onto the bus, resulting in the crash.
Confirming the accident, Margaret Onabe, the acting Sector Public Education Officer for the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), reported that the probable cause of the fatal crash was attributed to the deteriorated condition of the road.
The injured victims were promptly taken to Divine Care Hospital, Umunya, for medical attention, while the deceased individuals were transported to Chira Hospital for confirmation by medical professionals before being transferred to the New Jerusalem Mortuary, Nteje.
Corps Commander Adeoye Irelewuyi, the Sector Commander of Anambra State, expressed his condolences to the families of the deceased victims, offering prayers for the repose of their souls and speedy recovery for the injured. He emphasized the importance of cautious driving and urged motorists to remain attentive to their surroundings, emphasizing the need to “Drive to Arrive Alive.”

Qdot disclosed that he wakes up daily around 2:30 a.m., gripped by panic as memories of the attack resurface. He described feeling constantly unsafe, as though the assailants might return at any moment, adding that the experience has significantly affected his peace of mind and daily life.
Qdot also said the trauma has left him emotionally unsettled, with restful sleep now difficult to attain. He continues to pray for healing, relief from fear, and peace of mind, while urging stronger preventive measures from authorities to protect residents from similar attacks.
On the night of the robbery, armed men invaded Qdot’s residence, holding him and his official DJ at gunpoint. The attackers stole phones, laptops, and other valuables, and also reportedly accessed some of his bank accounts and social media platforms.
The singer described the event as one of the most frightening moments of his life, admitting he feared for his survival.

Qdot is renowned for hits such as Gbese and Alomo Meta and is the founder of Yoruba Boi Music record label.
According to Nivo News, Nigerian musician and activist Seun Kuti has explained why he continues to critique prominent Christian leaders, including Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Kuti, the youngest son of late Afrobeat pioneer Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, spoke during an appearance on Morayo Afolabi-Brown’s television programme on Tuesday. The discussion addressed his frequent public criticisms of senior pastors, particularly Pastor Adeboye, who is widely revered and affectionately called Daddy GO by church members.
The host noted that many Nigerians place great faith in Pastor Adeboye’s prayers and spiritual influence and suggested that Kuti should refrain from publicly challenging religious leaders. In response, Kuti stated that faith leaders cannot operate beyond public scrutiny when their influence extends into societal and political matters.
He emphasized that criticism becomes inevitable when religious institutions influence people who do not share their beliefs. Kuti further argued that churches often move from guiding personal worship to shaping public life without providing practical solutions to pressing social problems. He suggested that religious organizations should prioritize concrete welfare programs, such as free hospitals and maternal services, rather than relying solely on spiritual pronouncements, especially since congregants contribute financially through offerings and donations.
When the host admitted that Kuti’s previous remarks about Pastor Adeboye had personally upset her, he replied that societal change requires accountability, not silence. Kuti added that physical involvement in a church is not necessary to evaluate its impact on the wider community.

The movement, speaking through Abia State spokesperson Chibuzor Obiesili on Wednesday, claimed that the former leaders are determined to deliver the state to President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Obiesili said, “It has come to public knowledge that a meeting of former governors, alongside their former commissioners, was reportedly orchestrated by Senator Orji Uzor Kalu. At this meeting, they allegedly resolved to remove Dr. Alex Otti in the 2027 general election and secure Abia State for the APC and President Tinubu.”
The Obidient Movement also called on Governor Otti to consider joining the African Democratic Congress (ADC) ahead of the 2027 gubernatorial election. Obiesili added, “We want to use this opportunity to urge Governor Otti to join the ADC, where our leader Mr. Peter Obi and other well-meaning Nigerian politicians are, to form a united bloc and ensure votes are not divided.”
