The accident, involving two tankers, a Mazda 323 and a BM100 18-Seater Boxer car, occurred at about 3:50 pm on Wednesday.

Eyewitnesses said, a Diesel Tanker with number plate GWU154XA and an IVECO tanker with registration number ABE338XA crashed around Bonu village along Lambata-Minna road and immediately transformed into flames.

A resident in the area, Abdul Sani who spoke to newsmen via telephone said that 17 persons (15 males and two females) were involved in the accident, but that only two persons got burnt in the crash beyond recognition, while others sustained various degrees of excruciating injuries.

Sani further said men of the fire service got on top of the situation to put off the conflagration after battling it for several hours, while those who sustained injuries were taken to the Federal Medical Centre Gawu Babangida in Gurara local government for treatment.

As at the time of filing the report, the Federal Road Safety Corps in Niger State was yet to issue any formal statement on the crash and effort to get the Sector Commander, Mr. Joel Dagwa and the Public Relations Officer, Mr. Raji Egigogo, was unsuccessful as their numbers could not be reached.

Meanwhile, spokesman to the Chairman of Gurara Local Government, Halilu Bwaje who gave cheering update on the unfortunate incident said: “those that sustained series of injuries have been taken to the Hospital by the Men of the Federal Road Safety Corps and are responding to treatment at the FMC Gawu Babangida”.
