Reports just reaching us indicate that no fewer than 25 people died in Abuja, Kano, Makurdi and Niger yesterday, while celebrating the victory of President-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari.

Vanguard reports that while 17 of the victims died in Kano, four died in Abuja, three in Kontagora, Niger State and one in Makurdi, the Benue State capital, while several others sustained injuries.
However, police authorities in Kano claimed only seven bodies were discovered by their men after the celebration.
According to an eyewitness, Ali Sufi of Naibawa quarters, three people were crushed to death at Naibawa U-turn, when a man in a Toyota Camry car lost control and rammed into those celebrating.

Sufi, further disclosed that one Sabo Ali, an ad hoc staff of communications giant, Etisalat, lost his life alongside his friend when a reckless driver knocked them down at Ungwa Uku end of Zaria Road within Kano metropolis.
Confirming Sabo’s death, guardian to the deceased, Mallam Idi Naibawa said that he (Sabo) died yesterday morning at Malam Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital from injuries he sustained in the accident.

Idi Naibawa explained that “a good Samaritan, who identified Sabo’s motorcycle reported the accident, and our fear was confirmed at Yarakwa police station that rescued and took him to the hospital.
“We have accepted his death as a fulfilment of destiny and barring any hitch, Sabo would be buried before 5p.m. local time today (yesterday).”
In another eye witness account, Ibrahim Dogo, a resident of Naibawa quarters in Kano said that two teenagers were crushed to death along Zaria Road by a crazy driver.
Dogo said: “We received two dead bodies this morning at the Tiga Naibawa quarters and we are set to bury them.”
Another report from Hotoro also confirmed the death of six youngsters during the crazy celebration that engulfed the commercial city.
According to a resident, Masaud Badamasi, “we lost six boys to the crazy celebration last night and we are getting ready to give then a heroic burial.”

I watched a movie sometime ago and one of the actresses said, "a man's happiest moment is also his weakest"

The kind of sense you lose when you are very angry can also be lost when you are extremely happy!
