A tragic collision occurred on the Kaduna-Abuja highway near the Sabon Gaya, Kakau area, involving a commercial vehicle with registration DKA 555 XF, owned by the Gulf car company. Regrettably, this devastating accident claimed the lives of six individuals, as reported by Naija News.

According to reports, the accident unfolded around 7 a.m. on Thursday when it is believed that the driver lost control of the vehicle, leading to a collision with a concrete barricade.

Nadabo attributed the accident to several factors, including the loss of control, excessive speed, and a burst tire. He called on drivers to exercise caution and adopt responsible driving practices.

The sector commander expressed concern about the timing of most accidents on the highway, often occurring between 4 a.m. and 6 a.m., as well as between 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. During these hours, it appears that some commercial drivers of overloaded vehicles assume there is no presence of FRSC personnel on the road.

He stressed that the FRSC and other advocates for road safety have consistently warned against creating illegal diversions to prevent unfortunate incidents like the recent one.

Nadabo conveyed his sorrow regarding the tragic event and hoped that it would serve as a lesson, emphasizing the significance of patience, particularly in the section of the Kaduna-Abuja road undergoing reconstruction.

He extended his condolences to the families of the victims who lost their lives in this heartbreaking yet preventable occurrence.
