A GUO 18-seater bus was thrown into a river along the Agbor-Benin expressway on Friday. Two passengers were rescued by locals while the remaining 16 are feared dead.
According to witness reports, the bus was hit from behind in Abudu and thrown into the river by a trailer.
One source says he is neighbours with one of the female victims who leaves behind a husband and two kids. Her husband is reportedly in shock and keeps asking if this means prayers do not work.
