The Speaker was said to be travelling to his Okene home town when a heavy duty truck rammed into his escort van at Osara, along Okene road.
While the Speaker’s vehicle, along with others, were not affected by the accident, a police corporal Lamidi Akeem, who was in the affected escort car died, yesterday, at the hospital.
Confirming the report, the Speaker’s Chief Press Secretary, Austin Akubo, said the Speaker’s vehicle was not affected.
