He advised motorists to be patient while on the road, adding that they should reduce speed in order to stay alive.

"It was a multiple and fatal accident involving two vehicles; a commercial Nissan Vanette bus and a private Honda Accord," he said.

"27 persons were involved, 10 lost their lives, nine of which were burnt beyond recognition, while 16 persons sustained various degrees of injury and one other person was rescued unhurt."

He said that the corpses have been taken to the UITH by the FRSC, police, and the NSCDC, urging those going through the route to be careful and ensure that their vehicles were in good condition.

Owoade warned motorists against impatience while on the wheel, adding that as it was the festive season, only the living can celebrate.
