On Tuesday, December 27, a car lost control and slammed into a crowd of people at a carnival in Calabar, Cross River State, killing at least 10 people.
More than 20 more people reportedly suffered injuries of varying severity.
In a conversation with reporters, the state's police commissioner, Balarabe Sule, confirmed the tragic incident and said: " I cannot confirm the actual number of the de@th presently but I can confirm that over 20 persons have been inj¥red.
I have personally helped to evacuate a good number of the inj¥red and some co¥pses to about three clinics in Calabar.”
According to reports, the incident took place on Mary Slessor Road, one of the carnival circuits, at around 4 o'clock.
The parades for superbikes and exotic automobiles were scheduled for today by the carnival organizers. But it was a late start. The car that skidded off the road was not one of the carnival cars.
