There was a tragic road carnage yesterday afternoon as fourteen passengers were reportedly burnt  in an accident which occurred at Iwaraja junction, near Ilesa, Osun State.

Also twelve others were presently receiving treatment at a special hospital in Osun State after sustaining injuries.
Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) in Osun, Mr Sunday Maku, confirmed the casualty figures in a chat with reporters in Osogbo, the state capital.
Maku said the victims, including two drivers, were burnt beyond recognition when two buses collided and a fire started.
He said one of the buses was coming from Akure and going to Ibadan, while the other was moving in the opposite direction.
Maku said: “The accident involved a white Toyota Hiace bus, marked LG 27 GAR, with the inscription ‘Akoko Edo Line’, and a Volkswagen wagon painted in white and orange colour, with an unidentified registration number.
“Twelve adults, including eight men and four women, who were seriously injured, were taken to Wesley College Hospital in Ilesa.”
He blamed the accident, which occurred about 12:10pm, on excessive speeding and dangerous driving.
