A man, identified as Idris Yunusa, is reported to have died after two motorcycles collided on Saturday evening near Agyana village, in Abaji Area Council of the FCT.

A witness said the accident occurred at about 8:12pm when one of the cyclists coming from Agyana village did not put on head light.

He said the cyclist that died was coming from Abaji, adding that he hit his head on  the road as he fell and that he was rushed to hospital in Abaji, where he died while being attended to.

He said the two cyclists were both taken to Ayaura Primary Health Centre by some residents of Agyana village who rushed to the scene.
