The incident happened on Saturday, Feb. 18 ahead of the forthcoming general elections. One of the victims has been identified as Grace Usman Ezra.

A number of the travelers survived as they jumped out of the crashed vehicle but suffered various degrees of injuries.
A hospital staff took to Twitter to reveal that many of the victims are in the burns unit or the Accident and Emergency unit at the Alex Ekwueme Teaching Hospital and are “in pains.”
