No matter how peaceful or serene any water body may appear, including a swimming pool, never take the risk of swimming except you are a confirmed swimmer.

RIP to the dead.

It's quite unfortunate, if u learn how to swim in a pool, don't ever think that makes you qualify to swin in a river, they're quite different. Only someone who learns swimming in an open river with a bit of current can swim very well in a swimming pool.


RIP to the dead, may God comfort their families and give them the strength to bear this irreplaceable lose

There is difference between Ògùn(River) and Ògún(god of war/Iron). People curse using Ògún (god of Iron/war) just as they use Sango(god of thunder) not Ògùn (river).

Yoruba is very very tonal: Oko, Igba, Igbo, Ogun, Alaba, Alausa, Osan, etc can mean many many different things.

That river have its source in Oyo state and flows directly into the Atlantic ocean. Why it's named River ogun is what I don't understand.
Ogun State is named after the river rather; so also the areas around its source in Oyo Stare is called Oke-Ogun

No matter how good you are in swimming, *Don't* ever swim in any river or swimming pool that has no life gaurd especially d river of a place that you are not an indigene, because most of this waters have some powerful force hidden in them, lessons learnt while serving in Nembe
