Sector Commander, Mr. Kabir Nadabo, informed the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Kaduna that the crash occurred at Sabon Sara village along the expressway on Tuesday. He identified the vehicles involved as a trailer (Iveco) with registration number MKA 99YS, and confirmed the accident time as approximately 3:30 a.m.

“Combined rescue teams from RS1.113 Zhipe and RS1.17 Birnin Yero conducted the rescue operation,” Nadabo explained.

Initial investigations attributed the crash to overloading of goods and passengers, possibly compounded by driver fatigue.

“Further investigation revealed that 73 people were involved in the crash, with 59 sustaining injuries and, sadly, 4 losing their lives,” Nadabo stated.

The injured were transferred to St. Gerard and AP Smart Hospitals in Kaduna for medical attention.

Responding to concerns about recurring accidents during the festive season, Nadabo noted the efforts of the FRSC to curb road traffic crashes and save lives.

He said the FRSC has set up some initiatives to reduce the high incidence of auto accidents during festive periods, adding that they included the Establishment of roadside camps at Kakau and Rigachikun for prompt response to crashes; Provision of standby ambulances at key locations along the expressway with trained personnel to provide first aid; Increased awareness and sensitization campaigns for road users on general safety practices; strict enforcement of traffic regulations, including prosecution of drivers caught overloading their vehicles with goods or passengers.

Nadabo expressed appreciation for the support received from the Kaduna State Government and the media in promoting road safety.

He reiterated the collective responsibility to prioritise safety and collaborate with the FRSC to save lives and property on the roads.
