One person was killed and another injured on Monday in an accident along the out-bound lane of the Umaru Musa Yaradua Expressway, better known as the Airport Road in Abuja, Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory.
The dead has been identified as Deborah Ohamara, a staff of Naija Info FM, 95.1 Abuja.
The accident which involved a gravel-carrying truck and two smaller vehicles claimed the life of a woman, while one person sustained mild injuries.
The accident also caused gridlock along the ever-busy expressway, making it very difficult for commuters to make use of the road.
Officials of the Directorate of Road Traffic Services, the Federal Road Safety Corps and some policemen were seen at the scene doing what they can to maintain order.
