Three of 6 technicians died on Saturday evening in Delta State, after their jeep veered off of the road, broke a side rail of the Agbarho bridge and plunged into the river around Agbarhor/Okuokoko length of the East-West Expressway.
The victims of the accident were said to be the technical staff of an indigenous construction company returning from an assignment in Bayelsa State when the unfortunate incident happened.
Three of the occupants were rescued alive by divers who swung into action almost immediately the accident occurred. One of the survivors said the vehicle wasn’t speeding when the incident happened.
