Maikano Hassan, Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) in Cross River, has confirmed a single incident that killed a middle-aged woman in Calabar on Sunday while she was pursuing her husband over his "mistress."
According to the Sector Commander, who spoke with the Vanguard on Sunday night, the incident was caused by excessive speed.
He stated that an accident involving a Toyota Highlander on the Muritala Mohammed Highway in Calabar claimed the life of the lone female driver, who veered off the road and into a ditch by the road.
"Though the woman was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital, she was said to have died a few minutes later due to the injury sustained from the incident," he says.
According to Vanguard, the woman was pursuing her husband, who was allegedly with a "side chick" in his car, when she lost control of her vehicle and killed herself.
According to a source who did not want her name printed, the woman saw her husband leaving SPAR shopping mall with another female when she attempted to block her husband's car with the Toyota Highlander she was driving.
"Her husband was said to have maneuvered his vehicle out of the attempted blockade before taking the Murtala Muhammed highway, with his wife in pursue."
"In an attempt to outrun her husband, she lost control of the speeding vehicle, veered off the road, and slammed head first into a tree, damaging the vehicle beyond repair and killing herself," the source explained.
