The Oyo State Police Command and the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) are yet to provide details of the accident which claimed about 18 lives on Saturday.
It was reported that about 18 people reportedly lost their lives as a result of an accident that occurred along Iseyin-Ibadan Road on Saturday evening.
It was gathered that the incident occurred at a sharp bend at Kilometre 5, Iseyin-Ibadan Road and that about eight of the passengers were members of a Baptist Church in Ibadan.
Some of the victims were taken to a private hospital, FADOK Hospital in Iseyin.
He said that, “Yes. Some of our members of Baptist were involved in the accident. A pastor and some members.
“They were coming from Saki”.
But, the state police command and the Federal Road Safety Corps, Oyo State command, have refused to provide details of the incident.

Similarly, efforts to get details of the accident from the FRSC also proved to be abortive.
