Tuesday, February 24 2026 -A ghastly motor accident on Monday evening along the Yola–Mubi Road left four women dead and 26 others injured.
The Deputy Chairman of Song Local Government Area, Donan
Prambe, said the vehicle was carrying women travelling to the Annual Convention
of the Lutheran Church of Christ in Nigeria in Demsa Local Government Area.
“The women are from LCCN Simra in Dunen town, Song Local
Government. I was driving behind the vehicle when, all of a sudden, I saw it
start somersaulting into the bush,” she said.
“Three women died on the spot, while others were lying down
without breathing, their bodies covered in blood,” Prambe added.
She confirmed that the bodies of the deceased and the
injured were moved to the Specialist Hospital in Yola for treatment.
Contacted on Monday, the medical director of the hospital,
Dr Dauda Wadinga, said, “Please, I can’t talk now; we are treating those who
were brought alive.”
The spokesperson for the Adamawa State Police Command,
Suleiman Nguroje, told our correspondent that he would provide an update after
consulting the DPO in the area. However, as of the time this report was filed,
no response had been received.
Last year, a group of LCCN women travelling to the Demsa
annual convention was involved in an accident at the same location, which
resulted in multiple fatalities.
