Ha this also happened at my place of work ... They locals used bunch of leaves called ewe akoko to chanced the spirit away and it works

Oga, there's no spirit behind it. It's just common sense coupled with education, is the way.
Enough of praising spirits that are extinct

Should I say stupidity at its peak?
Or is it hunger in the contry?


How can someone with commonsense agree to convert an existing well with casting to bore hole system of water supply?
Did the drillers not know that sand by walls of the well would surely cave in as soon as they begin to dig/drill deeper?

Yet they would call themselves professionials!

This is a confined space accident, they did not follow confined space entry procedure. When we safety professional tell them to observe this safety procedures they think we don't know what we are saying.

No job is good enough not to be done safely.

May their souls rest in peace and may the living learn from their mistakes.

One of the worst types of death. In the last moments the kind of thoughts that will be going through their heads... Thinking of their families, thinking of how they are just gonna leave life without achieving things... embarassed embarassed

See this one....u say think....

In dire cases like that,you dint think of what you have or have not achieved in life. Only thought is fighting fir ur life....u 4get if buhari's reign has been hard on u or not....U think death is easy undecided

Not a borehole.

A shaft or perhaps local well.

In this day and age we shouldn't be using such archaic methods.

God bless the dead.

A borehole accident which occurred on 24th October, 2016 at Onitsha, Anambra State, has claimed the life of 3 people.

Two local borehole drillers engaged to carry out the job unfortunately died due to lack of oxygen. The third person, an unprofessional rescuer also lost his life trying to evacuate them. However the person that finally evacuated the dead bodies from the borehole succeeded because oxygen was repeatedly injected into the borehole.

Officials of the National Emergency management agency helped to evacuate the bodies. May their souls rest in perfect peace.
