Okpe said, “One vehicle was involved with no registration number on it, a Daf truck conveying both passengers and animals.”
Okpe blamed the lone crash on a tyre burst while speeding, which she said led to the loss of control.
She said the injured victims had been taken to Victory Hospital, Ogere for medical attention.
