The accident occurred at about 9:00pm on Sunday night when an unregistered bus heading towards Yaounde collided with a stationary truck loaded with timber.

The impact of the shock was so immersed that eight people died on the spot while two others died on their way to the Edea District Hospital.

The bus driver was said to be on top speed and did not notice the truck had been parked by the roadside until he ran into it.

Police officials of Sanaga Maritime division in the Littoral region rushed to the scene to provide emergency aid to the victims and open investigations.

Twelve other victims of the crash were evacuated to the Laquintinie hospital in Douala. A wide variety of foodstuff, identity cards, shoes, keys and a Holy Bible were spread out in a pool of blood on the road, several minutes after the impact.
