At
least 7 people were killed in an auto crash that occurred along the
Odukpani axis of the Calabar-Ikom Highway in Cross River State on Thursday.
According to the Nation gathered that the victims were occupants of a bus heading out of the
city, which collided with a truck that swerved onto its lane, probably
attempting to avoid the several potholes dotting the road.
The
situation caused a traffic jam that lasted several hours.
The
deplorable state of the Calabar-Ikom-Obudu-Ogoja Highway had been the cause of
several fatal accidents in the past weeks.
Several calls to relevant authorities by road users
over the years, to work on the road had yielded no results
