Five staff of the federal judiciary on Tuesday died in a road crash in Abuja while three others sustained serious injuries.
The staff includes three from the National Judicial Council (NJC) secretariat; and one each of the Supreme Court and Appeal Court.
The crash occurred at the Mpape junction bus stop along Kubwa Express-way where the staff were waiting for the staff bus.
Eye witnesses told Dailytrust that the incident occurred when a female driver, who was on telephone, lost control and veered off the road killing the five on the spot. Three others are said to be unconscious.
A staff of the Supreme Court said funeral arrangements are being made for the Muslims among the dead, according to Islamic rites.
