Two Killed, Four Injured As Truck Crashes Into Motorists In Lokoja Despite Daytime Ban

At least two people were killed and four others severely injured after a haulage truck rammed into motorists and pedestrians at Felele bus-stop in Lokoja, Kogi State, on Tuesday night.

The crash occurred despite the state government’s July ban restricting heavy-duty vehicles to operate only between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. Eyewitnesses said the truck lost control before plowing into other road users, leaving bodies on the ground until rescue teams arrived.

The tragic incident has renewed concerns over the weak enforcement of the restriction, especially along Felele — a notorious crash spot on Nigeria’s north-south transit corridor.

Community leaders and students have called on the government to act, stressing that the road remains a death trap despite repeated promises of safety.
