MOTHER OF 4 ELECTROCUTED IN DELTA

Tragedy struck at  Ozoro,
headquarters of Isoko North Local Government
Area, Delta State, weekend, as a 43-year-old
woman was electrocuted in the community.
Simply identified as Mama Oyibo, the woman,
a mother of four, it was gathered, was
electrocuted by a naked electricity wire that
was dangling on the wall of her apartment at
the Urude quarter of the community.

Disclosing that the deceased was a petty
trader and a farmer, a source, who preferred
anonymity, told Vanguard that the woman had
returned from her farm at about 6p.m., Friday,
and decided to rest by leaning on the wall.

The source said: “Unknown to her, there was
a naked wire on the wall, which someone was
obviously working on before there was power
cut in the community.

“Part of her body was on the wire when power
was suddenly restored and she was
electrocuted. At first, she fainted with the
shock and was immediately rushed to a
nearby hospital by her neighbours for medical
attention.

“There were initial fears that she had died, but
she started showing signs of recovery and
everybody thought she was in stable condition.
But we were shocked when we received
information some hours later that she died.”
