The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) confirmed that 21 people have died in a crash early Sunday morning on the Zaria-Kano expressway in Nigeria.
The accident happened around 8:20 a.m. near Kasuwar Dogo, Dakatsale. It involved a commercial Toyota Hiace passenger bus and a heavy-duty DAF truck.
Preliminary investigations by the FRSC revealed the crash was caused by a route violation. The bus driver reportedly drove against traffic, leading to a fatal head-on collision with the oncoming truck.
Of the 24 people involved, 21 — including 19 men and 2 women — died at the scene. Three others were injured. The victims’ remains have been taken to Nasarawa Hospital in Kano.
Rescue teams worked quickly to clear the road and reopen traffic.
FRSC Corps Marshal Shehu Mohammed expressed deep condolences to the victims’ families and assured the public of a full investigation. He reminded drivers to obey traffic rules, especially avoiding dangerous behaviours like driving against traffic, speeding, and reckless overtaking.
The FRSC urged motorists to report unsafe driving through their mobile app, toll-free number 122, or directly to patrol teams to help prevent further tragedies.
