“However, upon getting there, it was learnt that the father of one of the victims had made arrangements for him to be transported to an undisclosed hospital in Kaduna for medical attention.
“Therefore, the rescue team cleared the obstruction caused by the crash for traffic flow.
“Incidentally, it was later revealed that the son of former Governor of Kaduna State, Senator Ahmed Makarfi, was involved in that crash.
