Nine Corpers Drown In Taraba During Picnic By Riverside by goldcoinhub: 6:33pm On Aug 05, 2018 |
Nine corps members who are currently serving in Taraba State on Saturday drowned in River Mayo-Selbe in Gashaka Local government Area. Taraba State Police Command Police Public Relations Officer, ASP David Missal, who confirmed the death of nine out of the 22 corps members who were swimming in River Mayo-Selbe said seven corpses have so far been recovered from the incident. “Information available revealed that 22 youth corps members had gone on a picnic party in River Mayo-Selbe in Gashaka LGA on Saturday when the incident happened “We were made to understand that while they were swimming in the river, there was sudden upsurge in the volume of water, which carried them away. “Nine of them drowned, while others managed to escape. “We have so far recovered seven corpses, while the search for the two remaining corpses is still in progress,” Missal said. State NYSC Coordinator, Mrs. Florence Yaakugh, also confirmed the incident, which she described as “most unfortunate.” Yaakugh also confirmed that seven bodies have been recovered, while the search for the other two bodies was still ongoing by the locals in collaboration with security agencies and the NYSC. “It’s a very sad development and we would soon have the identity of all the corps members involved in the accident and make such information known appropriately. “We have very sketchy information indicating that about nine of our corps members drowned in Gashaka yesterday. “So far, seven bodies have been recovered and we are working with relevant persons to recover the rest of the bodies and to identify them. “This is a very sad development and the entire NYSC family in Taraba State is already thrown into deep mourning,” she said. https://lailasnews.com/nine-corps-members-drown-during-picnic-by-riverside-in-taraba/ 3 Likes

how very sad. The loss of lives of corp members in this administration is something else. Before some people open their ugly mouths to protest against this comment, let them remember the many others who died due to extra-judicial policemen killings as well as a failed healthcare system at the camps. These are somebody's children/brothers/sisters too. 34 Likes 7 Shares |

Babyforever:Shut up please! They didn't die because of NYSC Does any program in NYSC include picnic and swimming? It's time we Africans stop making sensational and unreasonable comments so we can trace where Africa's problem is really coming from. Even someone without a brain should know NYSC has nothing to do with this. Then the next question becomes what caused it? From there we can discuss why our water bodies do not have safety officials to instruct and save people from deaths like this. We should stop all these stupid comments that aim to provoke sensational and emotional reactions from people with the same crowd mentality. The gimmick is mediocre already!!! We should tackle issues head-on instead of dancing around them. 129 Likes 13 Shares |

If you can’t swim, stay away from water. For them to drown in a river shows that they could not swim at all! Yet entered the river. 7 Likes |
