The Sector Commander, Henry Benamaisia, confirmed the development in a statement signed by the Sector’s Public Education Officer, Agnes Ogungbemi.

 

According to Benamaisia, a car plunged into Eti-Oni river at Eti-Oni along the Ife-Ondo road on June 28th 2023.

 

The FRSC blamed the cause of the crash on excessive speeding which led to a loss of control.

 

“A private vehicle, Toyota Venza with registration number BWR 909 SD plunged into the river and two male occupants were killed,” the statement read.

 

“Efforts had been on since then and the rescue operation was concluded on 30th June 2023. The local divers were contacted and they eventually located the final resting place of the vehicle

 

“A Hiab tow Truck was used to bring the vehicle out of the river, after which two male casualties were discovered as the occupants of the crashed vehicle.”

 

Benamaisia also disclosed that, “the relatives of the two victims of the accident were present at the scene of the rescue and insisted that the bodies be buried by the river side according to the tradition of the community.

 

“After the rescue operation, the retrieved crashed vehicle was handed over to the DPO Nigeria Police Force, Ifetedo Division.”

 

Benamaisia, who warned that motorists should desist from excessive speeding that could lead to loss of lives and properties, added that all road users must be safety conscious at all times and drive defensively.

 

He praised the efforts of other sister agencies, Nigeria Police, Nigerian Army, Nigerian Security Civil Defence Corps, Department of State Services and Osun Amotekun who were present during the rescue operation.
