It was a difficult experience for some African journalist covering the ongoing African Cup of Nation in Ivory Coast as their bus returning from one of the stadium in Yamasokoro had an Accident last night.
The bus was the one that conveyed journalist from Abidjan to the centre for group c which have Senegal, Cameroon, Gambia and Guinea was having their last group games that decided the faith of the Super Eagles opponent in the Round of 16.
The venue is like three hours from the capital city of Ivory Coast Abidjan where the Super Eagles and most Journalist covering the 34th edition of the African Cup of Nation resides.
A Nigerian journalist Oluwaseun was amongst other African journalist experienced this bad experience. Though it wasn't a fatal one but the proactive measure of taken all the injured journalist to the hospital was a good response from the police system of Ivory Coast.
According to Oluwaseun who as confirmed the incident this morning and also calm every other colleagues down that he is fine and string that it was just mere bruises he got from the bad incident.
Some others have been saying the bus collided with wall railing maybe might be out of stress or tiredness by the bus driver because the road in Ivory Coast are very good and smooth so it can't be as a result of bad road.
We hope CAF and the host take adequate care of their drivers and also find other medium to make them rest very well for this longer travels.
