Man Narrates How He Escaped Death After A 40ft Truck Rammed Into 10 Cars At A Checkpoint In Imo State

A Nigerian man has talked about how he survived a fatal accident which occurred yesterday, Dec. 23, in Imo state.

He also blamed the police and the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) for the accident. 

He said a 40ft truck lost control and rammed into at least 10 cars that were at a checkpoint along NgorOkpala/Owerrinta road.

"People died, some got injured. I only had a dent in my car," he wrote as he shared photos of survivors looking shaken at the accident scene.

He blamed the police and the FRSC for mounting a road block along a road so narrow, despite knowing there's a bend ahead.

"Your officers were busy collecting bribes from motorists and thereby endangering lives," he wrote.

He called what happened a "nightmare".
