Mercedes-Benz rams into stationary lorry killing newly passed out corps member, 2 others in Delta

A red Mercedes-Benz GLK on Wednesday rammed into a stationary IVECO lorry killing a newly passed out corps member and 2 others on the East-West Highway by Ekrerhavwen junction in Agbarho Community, Delta State.

The fatal accident which occurred before 6pm involved the Mercedes-Benz jeep with registration number YAB 331 CW and the IVECO lorry bearing Lagos T 18988 LA.

A source who saw the accident not quite long after it happened while he was returning from Asaba to Warri in a public transport vehicle told NewsNet Nigeria that the 3 occupants of the Mercedes jeep died in the crash.

NewsNet Nigeria further learnt that among the occupants was a 25-year-old newly passed out corps member of Ijaw extraction in Delta State.

He (name withheld) was said to have travelled to Yenagoa in Bayelsa State yesterday Wednesday with a commercial vehicle to process his international passport at the Immigration Office in the state.

When he finished he saw the other two occupants of the vehicle who probably were his friends travelling to Warri and he decided to join them unknowingly to him that danger was ahead.

Though it is yet to be ascertained the cause of the accident, footage and video sighted by this medium indicated that the Mercedes-Benz GLK veered off the expressway and rammed into the stationary lorry.

In recent times, it has become a common feature for persons seeking international passports in the Warri area to prefer to travel to Benin, Asaba and Yenagoa offices of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) to do so.

Those who spoke to NewsNet Nigeria on the development said the Warri office of the service usually gives the excuse of a shortage of passport booklets as the reason why it takes several months for those who applied to get their passports.

This ugly trend in the Warri office the respondents alleged has given rise to sharp practices among officers of the Warri office.
