What would have ended up as a tragic story fortunately ended on a good note recently in Edo.
Some travelling passengers nearly fell inside a river after an accident. Had their bus not stopped seconds after reaching the edge of a bride along Okene-Okpella highway, they would have fallen inside the water.
The bus almost veered off the bridge and nearly fell into the river along the bridge between Okene and Okpella in Edo state, as the driver was quick to stop the vehicle after initially loosing control.

Road users and motorists are calling on the state and federal government to build a guard rail on the open bridge which has recorded many accidents – to prevent this kind of incident.
