Tuesday, October 13, was a horrible day for a staff of the Benin Electricity Distribution Company and his family as he was electrocuted while doing his job.

According to the eye witness who sent in the photos, the young man whose name is unknown at the moment, came with his crew and started work. In less than 10 minutes that he started working, Power was restored. A load shout was heard by all that were around there and when the looked up to see what happened, they found the man in that position.

According to another eye witness, it took about 30 minutes to get him down from that height, after which he was taken to the hospital. Information reaching me today says the man died that same day.

What a loss... Is this a case of carelessness or wickedness?

I can't see any gloves on his hands.
What the hell was he thinking?
Many people don't always pay attention to safety measures until damage is done. This attitude is borne out of the tendency for the average Nigerian to neglect giving attention to things such as following standard procedures for doing things.

How would he climb an electric pole without safety equipment?

Why bad news this morning now?


Moderators, make una do better nau


Btw, is there not supposed to be a Safety Officer attached with his operation?

Work at Height plus Electrical Work needs Permit To Work.

We are seriously behind in this country. No Risk analysis, No Contingency Plan, No Management System... All we know is Work, Get Paid, Goan Chop the Money......


May God deliver us from POVERTY. We seriously need to always insist on the best practices coz our lives are at stake.
