No fewer than 15 persons have lost their lives in a ghastly autocrash in Kano State.
10 others were also injured during the tragic incident which occurred at Chiromawa Village in Garun Mallam Local Government Area of the State.
A security analyst, Zagazola Makama, who confirmed the incident in a post, said the accident involved a commercial bus marked NSR 188 KP, conveying 25 passengers and a stationed trailer marked KMC 158 XW.
“The bus driver lost control and crashed into a stationary trailer, resulting in multiple casualties,” Makama wrote.
