Two buses have reportedly collided along the Iseyin-Moniya road in Oyo State, resulting in no fewer than 18 passengers dead.

It was gathered that the accident occurred close to Kraal market along the route.

Newsflash Nigeria understands that the two buses had a head-on collision at a sharp bend along the road

The road was recently rebuilt by the Oyo government.

Uche Chukwura, sector commander of the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) in Oyo state, said she hadn’t yet been notified of the incident.

She said the delay in notification may be a result of the network downtime suffered by MTN on Saturday.

Chukwura, however, promised to provide details when it is available.
