At least 12 people burnt to death, on Monday, in an accident involving the Hiace bus coming from Kano and J5-bus going to Zaria which occurred at Tsamawa Town, Garun Malam Local Government Area of Kano State.
This was disclosed in a press statement issued by the Public Relations Officer of the State Fire Service, Alhaji Saminu Abdullahi, on Tuesday in Kano.
Abdullahi explained that all the victims were burnt beyond recognition, just as he attributed the accident to overspeeding.
He also urged motorists to always drive carefully to avoid unforeseen circumstances.
“We received a distress call from one Isah Mai-Fetur at about 3:00p.m that a commercial Hiace bus and another J5-bus had collided and instantly burst into flames.
“Upon receiving the information, we quickly sent our rescue team to the scene at about 3:12 p.m. to rescue the victims,’’ the statement read.
