It's better to be late than never.
RIP man.

Another one bites the dust

Sacrificial lamb.

This is the third man to have been electrocuted today by this faulty Street light pole at Kosofe Bus Stop, Mile 12. The Lagos State Government recently barricaded the road around the area with iron rails to force people to use the new pedestrian bridge in the area instead of crossing the road. However, because the bridge location is very far from this particular spot, people who have businesses at the other side of the road always cross the iron rail demarcation after bending the sharp pointed irons fitted on top. Unfortunately, a broken cable from this street light pole fitted to the demarcation is already touching the entire rail and therefore everyone trying to cross the place today have been shocked. Three unlucky persons died today at different times after getting electrocuted by the rail. That's not the only problem, the said pole is at the brink of collapse as it's been shaking all day and a major wind can finally pull it down. This is a very busy road, hope authorities will do something about it immediately before more damage is done. More photos below..

this is manslaughter by the installation company, why should a live naked wire be left exposed, now it has cost someone his precious life.

Public street lights are regulated by the govt. The distribution company would only work on the instruction of govt. Maintenance of the lights is also by govt.

Would the ikeja power company or the lagos state government be held for gross misconduct just like in the hotel beach death case a while back?

Symptoms of a Third World entity. How many people need to die needlessly before the people in charge do something. What a waste of human life.

Consequence of disobedience! Use the bridge don't cross the road!

you are right on your assertion, but poor insulation of joined cables carried out by a technician, is probably the cause of the electrocution

Orie baje with that statement !Orie baje with that statement !Orie baje with that statement !
