A man, his wife, and their two children lost their lives in an autocrash at the Mabushi Bridge, in the nation’s capital, Abuja, on Wednesday.
According to eyewitnesses, the family was traveling in a private car when the driver briefly stopped at the Berger Roundabout in Wuse to pick up a relative. A confrontation reportedly ensued with some individuals at the location, during which one person allegedly attempted to interfere with the vehicle.
In the struggle that followed, the driver lost control of the car, which rammed into a bridge pillar at Mabushi. The impact killed all four family members instantly.
Unconfirmed reports indicated that some individuals linked to the incident were attacked by an angry mob shortly afterward.
However, as of the time of filing this report, possible efforts by Tribune Online to reach the FCT Police Command Spokesperson, SP Josephine Adeh, over the incident and the alleged mob action proved abortive as she did not pick calls or respond to messages.
