A man was razed to death in a tragic accident involving four trailers and a petrol tanker in Kwara state.

The accident happened at about 9:00 am on Monday, April 26, at Bode Saadu-Jebba expressway, Moro local government area of Kwara State.

The Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the state Fire Service, Hasan Adekunle confirmed the incident and said the accident was caused by overspeeding by the drivers, resulting in a head-on collision.

The impact of the crash led to a fire outbreak and burnt the goods in the trailers. A man was also burnt beyond recognition.
