A 25-year-old student of Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, ATBU, one Michael Loya, was Wednesday, reportedly electrocuted to death while trying to spread wet clothes on a naked wire in his compound at Gentle Villa, Gwallameji, Bauchi state.

But in a contrary statement, the Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, of the State command, DSP Haruna Mohammed, said Loya was electrocuted while trying to reconnect electricity illegally in his compound.

“Preliminary inquiry revealed that the victim might have been electrocuted while trying to reconnect electricity illegally to his compound,” he said.

Mohammed said the Police patrol team attached to Yelwa Division visited the scene and rushed the victim to the Federal Polytechnic Medical Centre, Bauchi, for treatment.

“Unfortunately, Loya was certified dead on arrival by a medical doctor,” the PPRO added.

“The corpse has however been deposited at ATBU Teaching Hospital mortuary for autopsy,” Mohammed stated.

Before we start the blame games, we should all endeavour to realise that most of us are guilty of playing with life wire one time or another. Electricity is so rare in this country that when others have and we don't we feel depressed and we experiment without rational thought. Having said that #RIP Bro. ( in a saner country, you might still be alive).



Dedicate this FTC to my sunshine.

Illegal connection abi?

That's a high tension wire which emits over 300 volts" I think he was the only one who went there, coz he was shocked to death and no one could help.

RIP

"Electrocuted to death"

e·lec·tro·cut·ed, e·lec·tro·cut·ing, e·lec·tro·cutes. 1. To kill with electricity: a worker who was electrocuted by a high-tension wire. 2. To execute (a person sentenced to death) by means of electricity.

End time....I don't believe this can happened to an Under- graduate. They said illiteracy kills faster than disease....how on earth, would he spread wet cloth or even dry cloth on a Naked (life_wire) electricity wire.....RIP to him.

Another Boko Haram attack
