About 22 people died in two separate tragic incidents at the Opi Junction-Ehalumona axis of the Ninth Mile-Nsukka Expressway in Enugu. On Monday, two commuter buses collided and killed 20 passengers on that road, with several others injured. Also the same day, two young men allegedly fighting over a girl during a funeral fell into a nearby well and drowned.
The incident occurred at Ehalumona town. It was learnt that one of the vehicles involved in the crash with registration number AKL 323 XA belongs to a popular mass transit company. The bus was coming from Enugu when it collided with another bus with registration Number NNE 605 XA returning from the northern part of the country.
The state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Ebere Amarizu, confirmed the two incidents. She said that the bodies had been deposited at the morgue of Bishop Shanahan Hospital Nsukka while those injured were receiving treatment at some undisclosed hospitals. Those who died while fighting over a girl were identified as Egbebunbe Alumona (25) and Somadina also 25 years old from the same community.
