He said the driver and two other passengers in the front were trapped and seriously burnt before any assistance could come their way, adding that men of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) later arrived the scene to remove the burnt corpses.

When contacted, the Yangoji unit commander of the FRSC, Assistant Corps Commander (ACC) Joseph Samgbaza, confirmed the accident, which he attributed to speed limit violation and loss of control.

He said the three burnt corpses had been handed over to their relatives for burial at Lokoja.
