Accident In Kano Claims Two People’s Life, Four Injured

An official of Kano State Fire Service on Wednesday, reported that an accident that involved two vehicles on Kano-Gwarzo road, has resulted in the death of two people on Tuesday, while four other sustained injury.

Alhaji Saidu Mohammed, the spokesman of the fire service in Kano while speaking with newsmen revealed that the accident occurred at about 05:35pm.

“We received a distress call from one Mallam Wada Alhassan at about 05:35pm that there was an accident on Gwarzo Road.

“On receiving the information, we quickly dispatched our personnel and vehicle to the scene of the incident at about 05:41pm to rescue the victims,” Mohammed said.

He said the two vehicles; a truck, with registration number XF 375 FG and a Golf car with registration number KZR 421 ZT0, coming from opposite direction, had collided.

Mohammed attributed the accident, which involved six persons, to speed limit violation which led to loss of control by the drivers.

He appealed to motorists to obey traffic regulations so as to stay alive and minimise accidents on the road.
