Police Investigate Oshiomhole’s Auto Crash
Edo State Governor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole last Saturday survived an auto crash when a Peugeot J5 Bus filled with tomatoes and plantains rammed into his car.
The incident occurred at about 9:45am at Ewu Village along the Benin-Auchi road in Edo State.
Oshiomhole’s convoy was involved in a road accident along Warrake in 2012 where three journalists lost their lives.
A statement signed by Special Adviser, Media and Public Affairs, Prince Kassim Afegbua said the J5 Bus apparently lost control and rammed into the Governor’s Flag Car from the opposite direction before swerving into a road side ditch.
Afegbua stated that three vehicles in the Governor’s convoy were in front of the Governor’s Flag Car and had passed the Peugeot J5 Bus before the J5 Bus had direct impact with the Governor’s Car which had the Governor, his Aide-De-Camp [ADC] and his Driver as occupants.
He said the incident has been reported Divisional Police Station at Ewu for further investigation.
According to the statement, “The Governor’s Car was badly affected but no injuries were sustained by both occupants of the Peugeot J5 Bus and that of the Governor’s.”
“The Peugeot J5 Bus was following a truck that was descending the Ewu Slope when it suddenly veered off into the Governor’s lane from the opposite direction and directly impacted on the Governor’s vehicle, apparently because of brake failure.”
“The good story is that nobody sustained injuries in both vehicles. The Comrade Governor is hale and hearty, his ADC and other occupants of the Peugeot J5 are also in good condition.
“This is to assure all good people of Edo State that there is no cause for alarm. Their loving Comrade Governor is fine, hale and hearty as well as other occupants of the other affected vehicle. The Comrade Governor is wishing everyone a prosperous new year ahead,” he said.
