Nine die in Enugu-Port Hacourt Expressway accident

No fewer than nine persons were confirmed dead, while twelve persons sustained injuries in an auto crash on Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway, Enugu.

The Police Public Relations Officer in Enugu, SP Ebere Amaraizu, confirmed the incident to the News Agency of Nigeria on Monday.

Amaraizu noted that the incident happened on Sunday evening at eight pm.

He said that the accident occurred on Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway in Awgu Local Government Area.

“The incident occurred when an articulated vehicle conveying a caterpillar and a five hundred and eight mini-bus had a head-on collision.

“The passengers of the mini-bus were believed to be worshipers,’’ he said.

Amaraizu said that the corpses of the nine persons had been deposited at the mortuary of the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Ituku/Ozalla near Enugu.

According to him, the twelve persons critically injured had been rushed to the UNTH for medical attention.
