About three people are said to have died so far at the demolition site for the proposed Enugu Central Station along Ogui-Market Road in the Enugu North Council Area of the state.

The deceased, who were said to be scavengers, were reported to have died when walls of demolishing property fell on them.

SaharaReporters gathered that two persons died on Friday while one other person died on Saturday in a similar manner.

An eyewitness told SaharaReporters that the two who died on Friday, were evacuating some properties in one of the houses where occupants were chased out when a earth moving equipment knocked the house and the wall fell on them.

"They were rushed to the Mother of Specialist Hospital but regrettably on getting to the hospital doctors pronounced them dead.

"On Saturday, around 11:30am another person was hit and killed by falling debris from one of the several storey buildings."

A senior police officer at the scene confirmed to SaharaReporters the deaths of the scavengers, who came to make brisk business, from the rods and other building materials extracted from demolished buildings.

Although the officer could not confirmed the number of casualties, he simply said: "I can tell you authoritatively that some persons died at the demolition site when bulldozers pulled walls and it fell on them."

SaharaReporters, reports that despite the death of some scavengers, hundreds of others were still scrambling to scoop metallic items and plastics from the debris of the demolished buildings whose owners had been displaced from the Holy Ghost by Market Road, Enugu.

Really? So sad.

Honestly, I was there this evening. I observed how scavengers were literally dragging space with bulldozers.

To the misguided Igbo people who claim tribalism is the reason behind every demolition in Lagos, what will you say this time around?

But I have a question. Is the demolition with or without compensation?

RockHard:
Sanwo-Olu why☹️ You still carry your demolitions reach Enugu? I also heard you are demolishing ibo properties in Asaba. Let ibo people breathe Sanwo-Olu, na beg we dey beg.

I am waiting for the Igbo investment adviser to give us her advice below.

"Invest in Enugu at your own peril"

- Maryanne Moghalu

Where are the wailers

Do not invest in Enugu!!!

I am waiting on Bitter Obi the cry cry old man to sew another thread of how Enugu government demolished GTB headquarters and rendered almost 500k others and $20bn worth of investment of GTB building in Enugu worthless.

Now they’ve even added killing people to the list. Demolish their houses, businesses, and even kill them join. This is injustice!

Death by demolition

Heartfelt condolences to the deceased family even though this wasn't the intention of the demolition

Sad

Waiting for what the ape looking idiot called ezekwezili and the worthless bitter obidaft have to say about this...

Waiting for Peteru Atikulated Siriku reactions

Lol and lol

Dshocker:


How old are you?

He is old enough to know you are a hypocrite.

Wahala everywhere

Obidients camp in serious confusion. Eungu demolition claimed 3 lives. Will Peter Obi condemn this or not? This is the reason why a serious leader doesn't move by petty sentiment and tribalism.

Dem stand there dey shine teeth nii

May their souls rest in peace

wow.

Just imagine this had happened in Lagos and 3 people died.

Bitter soul Obi, the Agulu packaged fraud would have called a "world press conference" to talk about the discrimination against the Yeebos and the insensitivity of the govt. The fake news channel Arise and the brainwashed lunatics on that show would have been crying and wailing by now.
But all is quiet simply because it did not happen in Lagos.


Pls I beg you, don't invest in Lagos, We don't need nor want your investment. We have too many people in Lagos and we need to decongest it as soon as possible. We need fresh air in Lagos. Go and invest somewhere else so that everywhere in Nigeria will be developed not just Lagos. THANKS

Obi no go ever see dis news since no be lagos

Throwback:


He is old enough to know you are a hypocrite.

Tell that to your mother

Sawo Olu is advising Enugu gov I guess? Stop tribal politics.
