Breaking New!!

This happened in a village called Igogoro in Enugu Ezike, Enugu State. According to the information, there was one Hausa man that was called to draw off the unneccessary dirty water from that soak away pit you’re seen through the pipe but he ignorantly took the generator inside the pit.

So when the smoke from the generator was too much, there was no way for him to get out of the pit, when the smoke now got people’s attention, they now called able young guys to rescue the hausa man, when the first person entered he was unable to get out too, the second person entered in rescue of the first but he could not come out, that was how all of the followed each other in rescue of one another till all of them died. This is more than a mystery and tragedy to me!!
