A source said the young man, who lived in Ozoro, chose to drive to neighbouring Oleh to make his cash withdrawal rather than wait his turn at a crowded automated teller machine (ATM) point in Ozoro.
Rushing back home, the groom’s car skidded off the road and somersaulted, leaving him in grave danger.
