The accident occurred around 9:00 p.m. on Monday, November 17, 2025, when the driver reportedly lost control of the vehicle, causing it to plunge into the damaged bridge.
Eyewitness Nicholas, who spoke to reporters, said the bridge has remained in disrepair for almost four years, describing it as a “death trap” that authorities have failed to fix.
The deceased has been taken to Bunkpurugu Hospital, where the injured are also receiving treatment.
Residents continue to call on government authorities to repair the bridge to prevent further tragedies in the area.
