IMSU junction, another tragic incident has once again hit the area as
a fence collapsed on Tuesday night killing a woman identified as Mrs
Cecilia Uba.
Trumpeta reports that the wall fencing a building along Prestige
street, opposite Marvis Hotel in Works Layout near IMSU junction
collapsed between 11pm and 12 midnight while under pressure owing to
the flood from the heavy down pour that continued till Wednesday
morning.
When our Reporter got to the scene, the body of the deceased believed
to be a native of Ahiazu-Mbaise and sells rice grains in her shop on
the collapsed wall hard been taken away apparently to the morgue.
One of the surviving children of the victim (names withheld) who spoke
to our Reporter informed that his mother had instructed him to go home
after giving him night food that she would be coming home when the
rain stopped only for them to now hear that the wall had collapsed
killing the mother and leaving behind six of her children (3 boys and
3 girls).
It was also gathered that a similar incident had happened before now
though no life was lost.
