According to an eyewitness, the accident occurred around 3 pm near the Abaji General Hospital junction.

“The man died on the spot while his wife gave up at the hospital where she was rushed to,” the source said.

No sooner had the tragic incident happened than the officials from the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) arrived at the scene and transported the bodies to the hospital, the witness disclosed.

Funeral prayers for the couple were later held at the Abaji Science Primary School football pitch, led by Malam Ishaq Baba Tsana, Deputy Imam of Abaji Central Mosque.

In response to the tragic accident, residents of Abaji have called on the Federal Ministry of Works to construct an overhead bridge or interchange to prevent further accidents and loss of lives in the area.
