A yet-to-be-identified male adult died after an electric cable drum fell on him at Ojo-Igbede Road in the Ojo Local Government Area of Lagos State.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the incident.

He said the corpse had been deposited at the morgue while the investigation is ongoing.

Hundeyin said: “The corpse has been deposited in the mortuary for autopsy and preservation. An investigation is ongoing.”

The incident reportedly happened on Thursday while a forklift was lifting armoured cable drums.

“Incidentally, one of the cable drums disconnected and fell on a passerby, who was said to be pressing his phone while walking, and he gave up the ghost on the way to hospital. The scene was visited by detectives of the Ilemba-Hausa division, and inquiries were made,” a police source disclosed.

Meanwhile, the company’s owner has been taken into custody for questioning.

Don't You Want Man To Chop Good Food?

The key point here is he was pressing phone while walking and probably put earpeice to block his ear. This is very common in lagos,. It is avoidable death. Why cant he be cautious of things going on around him? RIP to him.

Hmmm....na wah oo..things are happening

Life so crue. Does he deserves to die this way?

That shit is very heavy

Against his own wish💔..

Truth be told, life's hard...

That stuff is too heavy. Ten heavy men can't shift it with ease talk more of landing on someone's body.

R.i.p to the guy.

Please avoid pressing your phone while walking. If you must do that make sure your eyes are everywhere

Hmmm....




Something mus kill a man at the same time we should also pay attention anytime we are on the road cause we have Alot of people out there who doesn't care about safety....

Pressing your phone while walking isn't different from receiving calls while driving.....

Very sad. Someone that left home to fend for the day and go back home. May this type of death never befall me.

Walking around while not paying attention is dangerous but electrical components falling on you as you walk is inexcusable.

It fell exactly when he was passing?
RIP.

Many ways death can meet person

RIP now he can't use the phone anymore...It better to keep your phone inside your pocket while working on the road except u received a call..so that you can be alert of your surroundings..pressing phone while walking on the road is very dangerous....
