She said the truck did not stop after the bus rammed into it while negotiating a bend around the “Kara’’ axis on the expressway.
A total of 21 people, 13 men and eight women, were involved in the accident.
The corpses were deposited at a morgue in Sagamu in Ogun, while the injured were taken to a nearby hospital, she said.
