It was gathered that Senator Okpebholo’s convoy rammed into the victims’ Silver Camry Sedan car when they were attempting to negotiate a sharp bend on the road.
In tears, a relative of Mr Edionwe who did not want his name in print lamented: “We are devastated beyond words. Emmanuel was a good, easy-going boy.
“He and his friends were driving in the Silver Camry car. Five of them died in the collision with Okpebholo’s convoy. Emmanuel and four of his friends are dead. One of them is in critical condition and being nursed to life at the hospital.”
The cause of the fatal crash is yet to be determined as persistent efforts to get across to officials of the FRSC proved futile, but the source disclosed it was probably due to overspeeding.
He disclosed that the late Edionwe died at Irrua Specialist Hospital, where he was taken for intensive specialist care, adding, “Officials of the Federal Road Safety Corp (FRSC) evacuated the bodies from the scene of the accident to the hospital. Four of them died instantlý while another victim died later. The lone survivor is in critical condition.”
A source disclosed that the remains of the victims have since been deposited at the Edo State University, Uzairue Mortuary in Etsako West Local Government Area of the state.…..For More READ THE FULL ARTICLE HERE ▶▶
