The accident allegedly took place at about 8:10 am and was said to been caused by over speeding and reckless driving, resulting in loss of control.

It was gathered that one of the buses, a Mazda bus with registration number XY 525 FST was heading for the state capital from Ogbomoso end, while the second bus, also a Mazda bus with registration number LRN 208 ZA was leaving the city when they both had a head-on collision.
