Tragedija na putu za Abudžu: saobraćajna nesreća u Nigeriji odnijela najmanje 20 života
U saveznoj državi Plato dogodila se teška saobraćajna nesreća u Nigeriji u kojoj je život izgubilo najmanje 20 osoba, nakon što je došlo do lančanog sudara četiri vozila izazvanog otkazivanjem kočnica na teretnjaku.
Autobus planuo nakon direktnog udara
Prema zvaničnim podacima koje je u subotu saopštila lokalna saobraćajna policija, a prenio AP, tragični udes se odigrao u petak. U sudaru je učestvovalo ukupno 25 lica, a među poginulima se nalazilo čak 18 putnika iz autobusa. Lokalna glasila navode da se autobus zapalio neposredno nakon što ga je udario kamion.
Kvar na kočnicama uzrok tragedije
Nesreća se desila na dionici puta između Havan Kiba i Džosa, saobraćajnoj ruti od velikog značaja koja povezuje državu Plato sa prestonicom Abudžom. Preliminarni nalazi Federalne komisije za bezbjednost saobraćaja pokazuju da su neispravne kočnice najvjerovatniji razlog zbog kojeg je vozač teretnog vozila izgubio kontrolu.
Loša infrastruktura i učestale nesreće
Nadležne službe su potvrdile da su spasilačke jedinice raščistile teren, nakon čega je saobraćaj na ovoj dionici ponovo uspostavljen. Zvaničnici su zatražili sprovođenje detaljne istrage o svim okolnostima koje su dovele do kvara i nesreće. Teški udesi predstavljaju čestu pojavu u Nigeriji, najmnogoljudnijoj afričkoj državi, gdje loše stanje puteva i slaba primjena saobraćajnih propisa redovno dovode do tragičnih ishoda.
BREAKING NEWS: Corps members, driver, and other passengers kidn@pped while travelling today An unspecified number of travellers have been kidn@pped on Nigeria's independence day.
