A traffic accident occurred this Wednesday, October 25, 2023, in the Somayah district in the Coyah prefecture around 1 p.m.
According to our information, it was a taxi registered RG 2849 AD which had three passengers on board which ended its journey in a shop. There was no loss of life, but significant material damage and injuries were recorded.
The manager of the shop where the taxi ended his journey said he was alerted by the noise of people outside while he was sitting quietly inside. Lancinet Condé explains the circumstances in which the tragedy took place. “I heard a noise and went out to see what was happening, I realized a car lost its braking system and was heading towards me. Fortunately, the door and part of the wall were the barrier that saved me. There were no deaths, but there was a lady who was injured.”
Part of Fatoumata Bangoura’s family home was also affected by the accident. She testifies that she saw the driver trying to control his machine without success: “When I saw the vehicle coming towards me with all pomp, I took a tangent to avoid the worst, the driver took the direction of the wall of our compound and hit part of our house.”
The taxi driver, who was visibly in shock, was unable to answer journalists’ questions.
