ILORIN —Tragedy struck, yesterday
morning in Ilorin, when a Pastor who was
a volunteer member of his Community
Development Association, was drowned in
a flood while creating pathway for the
water’s free flow in front of his house.
The over 10-hour rain in the state capital
started about midnight lasting till about
11am, yesterday
The deceased, according to residents in
Kilanko area of the state capital, where the
incident happened, used to create water
channels whenever there was such heavy
rain.
Vanguard reliably gathered that the
Pastor whose name was yet to be
ascertained at press time, was going about
his past time when he slipped and fell into
the gutter and the flood carried him away.
Unfortunately, there was nobody to rescue
him.
It was when the rains subsided some 30
minutes later that the residents discovered
that the pastor was missing.
A search party was quickly set up which
later found him dead inside a gully, about
500 metres from his house.
Contacted, the state Police Public Relations
Officer, PPRO, Ajayi Okasanmi, confirmed
the incident.
He said his remains had been deposited at
the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital,
UITH, morgue.
