Safety precautions outdoors
You can protect yourself from risk even if you are caught outdoors when lightning is close by.
If the weather forecast calls for thunderstorms, postpone your trip or activity.
Remember: When thunder roars, go indoors. Find a safe, enclosed shelter. Safe shelters include homes, offices, shopping centers, and hard-top vehicles with the windows rolled up.
Don’t forget the 30-30 rule. After you see lightning, start counting to 30. If you hear thunder before you reach 30, go indoors. Suspend activities for at least 30 minutes after the last clap of thunder.
If you are caught in an open area, act quickly to find adequate shelter. The most important action is to remove yourself from danger. Crouching or getting low to the ground can reduce your chances of being struck but does not remove you from danger. If you are caught outside with no safe shelter nearby, the following actions may reduce your risk:
Immediately get off elevated areas such as hills, mountain ridges, or peaks.
Never lie flat on the ground. Crouch down in a ball-like position with your head tucked and hands over your ears so that you are down low with minimal contact with the ground.
Never shelter under an isolated tree.
Never use a cliff or rocky overhang for shelter.
Immediately get out of and away from ponds, lakes, and other bodies of water.
Stay away from objects that conduct electricity (such as barbed wire fences, power lines, or windmills).
Stay away from concrete floors or walls. Lightning can travel through any metal wires or bars in concrete walls or flooring.
Safety precautions indoors
Being indoors does not automatically protect you from lightning. In fact, about one-third of lightning-strike injuries occur indoors. Here are some tips to keep safe and reduce your risk of being struck by lightning while indoors.
Avoid contact with water during a thunderstorm. Do NOT bathe, shower, wash dishes, or have any other contact with water during a thunderstorm. Lightning can travel through plumbing.
Avoid using electronic equipment of all types. Lightning can travel through electrical systems and radio and television reception systems.
Avoid using corded phones. Corded phones are NOT safe to use during a thunderstorm. However, cordless or cellular phones are safe to use during a storm.
Avoid concrete floors and walls. Do NOT lie on concrete floors during a thunderstorm

Sango adherents are on their way, bla bla bla bla bla...
Take the gals away. Stop the superstitious beliefs..
And btw, I normally run inside when it's raining. Having grown in the village as a toddler, I saw lightening setting off fires on palm trees every now and then. That fear has been with me ever since. Go inside when it starts to rain. Turn off your electrical appliances and lienon a bed till every thing calms down.

People will find a way to blame their parents for their death. Witnessed a similar case in Kogi State, the mom was blamed las las. They said that she stole a basket of kolanut in the market and the owner swore for her.
Where at kogi?

If Nigeria is going to have one natural disaster, apart from this bad leaders, I think it's going to be incessant lighting and thunders.

"They were crossing a school football field around the Ogo-Oluwa area when they were struck down by lightning.”


That was not very advisable at all! Clear and open expanse of land with few adjoining towers or trees ought be avoided during lightning showers.

Never cross an open field during rain, you will be a lightning conducting pole.

It's not advisable to be in an open field when rain is falling. Look for shelter even if it's a tree
