July 10, (THEWILL) – A fatal accident along the NTA Road, in the Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of Rivers State, has claimed the lives of five persons.

THEWILL gathered that the driver of a Lexus Saloon car at high speed rammed into a stationary sewage truck near the Okilton axis of the NTA Road early on Saturday, killing all occupants.

The occupants of the vehicle (two females and three males) were returning from a nightclub.

The accident caused a gridlock along the Rumuokwuta axis of Port Harcourt, the state capital.

The spokesman of the Rivers State Police Command, Nnamdi Omoni, confirmed the accident, saying the corpses have been evacuated.

Omoni said, “I can confirm the accident this morning at NTA Road. It was a terrible situation. Our men went there to evacuate the corpses and the police have commenced investigations to unravel the cause of the accident.”

Meanwhile, the accident occurred barely 48-hours after Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State lifted the two-month-old curfew imposed on the state.
