8 persons killed in a fatal road accident in Niger state.

About 8 persons were reportedly killed when there was a collision between a trailer and an eighteen sitter bus. Some of the passengers were injured.

The accident happened between Gada Eregi and Sabondaga along Minna Bida road.

Eye witness said that the two vehicles collisions was as a result of bad road and too much dust that prevented both drivers from seeing each other. The dust from this untarred express road has left many of the residents and drivers that ply the road vulnerable as it's is getting out of hand as a result of the dry season.
