It's not a big deal. there are hundreds of accidents happen on our roads all the time and several persons lost their lives while other are being maimed for life, so i don't know how this one is becoming a breaking news..... I wish the Governor and all that were injured in the accident quick recovery and RIP to the dead ADC.
