Dangote reckless truck driver has turned Auchi into a mourning ground, killed 3 instantly.
NaijaOnPoint Nigeria reports that Auchi, Edo State, was thrown into chaos again on Sunday after yet another reckless Dangote truck claimed lives in a horrifying crash that has renewed public anger against Africa’s richest man’s company.
According to eyewitnesses, the ill-fated Dangote truck allegedly suffered brake failure before violently ramming into a white Mercedes-Benz GLK along the Benin–Okene Expressway. The impact was so devastating that the car was crushed beyond recognition, instantly killing three of its four occupants and leaving the only survivor fighting for life.
But the carnage didn’t stop there. The force of the crash hurled the Dangote truck into a head-on collision with a BUA truck before it erupted into flames directly opposite the Omega Fire Ministries headquarters, sparking panic as residents watched yet another avoidable disaster unfold.
This deadly incident comes only days after another Dangote truck in the same Auchi axis ruined the life of Otanor Ruth Bodom, a fresh graduate of Auchi Polytechnic. Ruth, struck by what witnesses described as an underage and unlicensed Dangote driver, lost one leg on the spot and now faces amputation of the other.
Outrage has since poured in from all quarters, with residents, victims’ families, and religious leaders condemning the company’s persistent trail of destruction.
Founder of Omega Fire Ministries International, Apostle Johnson Suleman, expressed his anger on Sunday, publicly calling out Dangote Industries:
“Dangote Industries, you are not the only rich man on earth. Your recklessness in managing your business has destroyed families and made many parents childless. Your truck just killed 3 persons a few minutes ago in Auchi. You give trucks to little boys who are high on drugs and untrained. This won’t go unchallenged.”
The tragic pattern of bloodshed linked to Dangote’s fleet has left Nigerians asking why the billionaire’s empire continues to operate with impunity despite the repeated killings on the nation’s highways.
