Tragic,JSS student drowns in Edo flood

THERE was pandemonium,
yesterday, in Egor Local Government Area of Edo
State, when a JSS III student of Useh Secondary
School, identified simply as Osamudiamen, was
found dead in a pool of water. When the news of his death came to the authorities of
the school, both students and teachers raced to the
scene to retrieve the body. A source at the school told Vanguard : “It happened
at about 9 a.m. when six of the students left the
school premises. “Nobody knew where they went. It was later that
people started saying that they saw one boy drowning
in the water. So we rushed down to rescue him but by
the time we got there some people had brought him
out from the water. But he was already dead. “We were told that when they got to the water, which
gathered after it rained two days ago, the boy jumped
inside to swim and in the process drowned. Others
ran away and went to call people to help but before
they could rescue him he was already dead.” When newsmen arrived the school, there was
confusion as the authorities made frantic effort to
take the corpse to the mortuary while they tried to
reach the parents of the deceased
