At the Calabar bikers' procession, many are presumed dead after a car ploughs through the throng.

Barely an hour had passed since the start of the Bikers/Exotic Cars Parade, one of the activities building up to Wednesday's Carnival in Calabar. At the Bogobiri axis of the carnival route, the driver of the vehicle that was participating in the event today, December 27, lost control of the vehicle and rammed into spectators.
