This bad incident happened yesterday October 18th at Kilo Bus Stop in Surulere. The man is allegedly an Okada man who blatantly urinated on a naked transformer high tension cable and was instantly electrocuted. People in the area say the transformer is a danger to them and are asking PHCN or the Lagos State government to help them sort this out before more people are injured or even killed. See more pics

Sodium chloride + water. Deadly combo. And he wasn't electrocuted since he didn't die. "Electrocuted" just doesn't fit here.

Well, that's mainly in American English.

In British English, it is now increasingly acceptable to use 'electrocute' to refer to injury resulting from electricity: the subject may or may not have died.

electrocute somebody
to injure or kill somebody by passing electricity through their body (http://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/electrocute)

British English: electrocute - If someone is electrocuted, they are killed or badly injured when they touch something connected to a source of electricity. (http://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/electrocute)

Eeyah I pity the man, see what ignorance has gotten the man into.

Buh hey he is still alive, so he aint electrocuted yet
Re: Man Electrocuted In Surulere After Urinating On A Unclad Transformer Cable by Urine: 4:10pm On Oct 19, 2014
No surprise here, the water in his body and the electrolytes in his urine was the major reason for this. If you've seen the movie "3 idiots" this was demonstrated towards the end of the movie by two kids in the gifted school while that loud mouthed clown was urinating at the back of a wall.

I can see the profs of nairaland are having an irrelevant debate. 'electrocuted' or 'electrocute' , which ever way it is, the right word can't bring him back but rather I wish d deceased RIP.....

A combination of IGNORANCE and STUPIDITY by the dude. . and FAILURE of the authorities.

Similar to the generator fumes that still kill families. Too sad.

Orinoco pulse!

On the bright side,he did not die secondly we know for sure that electricity generation has been definitely and sustainably improved/increased.
If you still don't have power, talk to your. State governments and/or yours local governments (do those exist ?).
Power supply is most probably available up to the local transformer feeders,THE FEDS HAVE DONE THEIR JOB.From there on is the responsibility of the other levels of government.
