“The Lexus arrived Ughelli around 5pm while the accident happened around 8pm.

“They were returning from a joint where they had gone to celebrate the arrival of the vehicle.

“The new vehicle rammed into a pay-loader truck along the expressway.

“The six of them died on the spot,” a source who claimed to have witnessed the evacuation of the dead bodies, told TheSun.

The source added that the new vehicle was damaged beyond repair.
