Folks, I've got some devastating news for you. A tragic road accident has claimed the lives of three Borno State University students and left over 30 others injured. The accident occurred on Wednesday, as the students were celebrating their graduation in Maiduguri.
Eyewitnesses describe the scene as nothing short of horrific. A Coaster bus carrying the students collided with a truck, resulting in the instant death of three students. The injured were rushed to nearby hospitals, including Umaru Shehu Hospital and the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital.
Now, I know what you're thinking. How could this have happened? The Vice President of the National Union of Borno State Students, Ali Mallam Gana, confirms that two people have been confirmed dead, and 23 others are severely wounded. But here's the thing, folks. The numbers could be even higher, as some of the injured are still receiving treatment in various hospitals.
This is a tragic reminder of the dangers that lurk on our roads. We need to take a hard look at our transportation infrastructure and figure out how to prevent accidents like this from happening in the future.
But for now, let's take a moment to mourn the loss of these young lives. Three students, full of promise and potential, cut down in their prime. It's a tragedy, folks, and one that we must not forget.
