The Osun command of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) on Sunday said two persons lost their lives in a ghastly accident on Ipetu-Ijesa-Ilesa expressway in the state.
A statement by the command’s spokesperson, Agnes Ogungbemi, said that 16 persons, 14 males and two females were involved in the accident.
Ms Ogungbemi said that the accident occurred at 12:10 p.m., involving an ash Mazda car with number plate KNE181XA and a white Toyota Hiace vehicle with number plate JJJ465EF.
She said that a Tecno T485 phone, identity card, two debit cards, OPPO mobile phone and N10,015 were recovered from the accident scene.
Ms Ogungbemi said that all the injured victims and the two dead bodies were taken to Wesley Hospital Ilesa by the FRSC patrol team.
She said that the accident was due to dangerous driving by the drivers.
She urged motorists to always obey the road traffic rules to avoid accidents that could lead to loss of lives and property.
Ms Ogungbemi, however, said that normalcy had been restored to the area for free flow of traffic.
