In what will come across as a really shocking development, it has been revealed that about 48-hours after Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State lifted the two-month-old curfew imposed on the state, five clubbers were confirmed dead during a fatal accident that occurred along the NTA Road, in the Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of the state on Saturday.
It was learnt that the driver of a Lexus Saloon car on high speed rammed into a stationary sewage truck near the Okilton axis of the NTA Road early on Saturday, killing all occupants.
It was gathered that the occupants of the vehicle – two females and three males – were returning from a nightclub.
The accident caused a gridlock along the Rumuokwuta axis of Port Harcourt, the state capital.

Omoni said, “I can confirm the accident this morning at NTA Road. It was a terrible situation. Our men went there to evacuate the corpses and the police have commenced investigations to unravel the cause of the accident.”
