The driver, who spoke in Yoruba to a traffic warden that arrived the scene of the accident, said the truck had brake failure and that he tried not to head toward the junction because doing so would have led to loss of lives. He expressed gratitude to God because the tanker was empty; otherwise, he said, it might have caught fire when it knocked down the electric pole. It will be recalled that 11 passengers, including a driver of a commercial bus, were burnt to death in Ile Ife on Sunday in an accident similar to the one in Osogbo. In the Ile Ife accident, a bus rammed into a tanker which was making a U-Turn while the truck almost ran into another commercial bus in an accident which occurred in Osogbo barely 24 hours after. Many people were burnt to death.
