The accident which occurred at 11.30 a.m of the day said to have involved a light blue Commercial Vehicle with registration number EKY 940 XW which collided with a truck due to over-speeding and disobedience to road traffic regulations.

Speaking on the accident through a statement by the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) spokesperson in Osun State, Mrs Agnes Ogungbemi stated that, two persons were involved in the accident but one died while the other is in a coma with severe injuries.

“The corpse of the dead victim has been taken to the morgue, while the injured was rushed to Wesley Guild Hospital, Ilesa for treatment.

“It was a lone accident. A light blue Commercial Vehicle with registration number EKY 940 XW collided with a truck due to over-speeding and disobedience to road traffic regulations.

“We have cleared the area to enable free flow of traffic without any gridlock, while our patrol team and Zebra 19 Ambulance took the corpse to the mortuary,’’ the statement read in part.
