It is stated that a terrible multiple-car crash in Enugu State claimed 25 lives on Wednesday, an extremely awful development.
There were ten cars involved in the collision, which happened near Ugwu Onyeama on the Enugu-Onitsha federal highway. Private and commercial buses were among the vehicles.
Many people were seriously hurt in the disaster, which was allegedly triggered by a Nigerian Army checkpoint. As a result, rescue personnel had to move the injured people quickly to hospitals in and around the state capital.
Eyewitnesses described the terrifying incident in detail, describing how a truck that was unable to brake went out of control down the steep road and ended up crashing into many cars who were stopped at the checkpoint.

“A trailer plying the newly constructed lane failed to brake and smashed into more than 10 cars, both private and commercial buses.
“The army checkpoint at that axis continues to claim lives. More than 25 persons lost their lives instantly, and many were rushed to the hospital,” said an eyewitness.
Unsettling video from the scene sent to SaharaReporters shows the wreckage, with cars, including a petrol tanker truck, buried in a nearby ditch and bodies scattered across the street.
