The state Sector Commander, Joseph Toby, who confirmed the incident to our correspondent, said the crash was caused by excessive speed, adding that two other persons sustained varying degrees of injury in the accident.
Toby said, “The accident was fatal. It was as a result of excessive speed that led to loss of control. It is a mini-commercial bus which was carrying one passenger and because he was on speed, he ran over someone trying to cross the road. “Probably in his struggle to control the bus, the bus somersaulted and in the process, burst into flames. The passenger he was carrying was rescued before the bus burst into flames.
“Unfortunately, the driver was burnt to death. The person he knocked down and a passenger were rescued and had been taken to the hospital.”
