On Saturday, November 19, 2022, on my way back from a wedding ceremony late afternoon, I stumbled upon a horrific accident scene at the Ugwu Onyeama Enugu Expressway. A tanker had just collided with a coaster bus carrying passengers who were on their way back from an event.
Mangled bodies covered in blood were strewn everywhere, people had
clustered around the scene and the sight was traumatic. I had to make a split
second decision whether to move on or to stop. I noticed one of the victims was
moving, and requested my drivers to stop.
I alighted from my vehicle with my aides, including those in my back up vehicles and approached the scene. To my shock and dismay, most of the people standing around there, who just parked their own cars by the side of the expressway were simply busy with their cellphones taking pictures and making videos of the gruesome incident.
