KANO(NIGERIA): A truck carrying passengers crashed in northern Nigeria because of reckless driving, killing at least 30 people and injuring several others, authorities said Sunday.
The trailer was driving along a highway in Kwanar Barde town in Kano’s Gezawa local government area when it lost control, according to a statement from the Kano governor’s office.
Road accidents are frequent in Africa’s most populous country, in part due to poor road conditions and lax enforcement of traffic laws.
