Yes, unfortunately both men died according to a LIB source at the scene who sent in the pics. The first one climbed the pole to fix the light and got electrocuted (read here). And his colleague climbed up to see if he could bring the dead man down, but he was also electrocuted. How unfortunate!
Blood of Jesus may they rest in peace

ReplyDeleteJesus Christ! What kind of unfortunate tale is dis bikonu??? May their souls rest in peace. Linda take note!
ReplyDeleteThis is completely insane.
ReplyDeleteNo safety measures for very high tension.

Is there no safety management system for the electrical body?
Fashola has to probe this case, this is completely unimaginable.
Mein Mitleid an die betroffene Familien des Opfers!

ReplyDeleteLinda there is no entity like PHCN anymore, it has been unbundled, from their uniform i think they are IKEDC officials...#Uromi
ReplyDeletethey are very quick to increase electricity tariffs but can't give basic training to their workers that they use to make all the money.
ReplyDeleteWho on earth works in the industry that doesn't know that one can not carry an electrocuted man with bare hands?
This again is change
Okay make i try understand this....is it that the second man no understand wetin happen to the first man before him climb pole or him wan form votron forgetting to take proper measure and safety first before him climb the pole....quite unfortunate but na one chance...

ReplyDelete2 bad a way to die
ReplyDeleteDey should have known beta bcos dat pole looks lyk death trap

2 bad a way to die
ReplyDeleteDey should have known beta bcos dat pole looks lyk death trap

It's a pity..may God give their families fortitude to bear the loss
ReplyDeleteNawa ooo...how can d second man even climb up to bring down an electrocuted man immediately??? Doea he not know d dangers and that electricity conducts abi na transfer sef.Is he stupid or what??? Is this a case of death calling someone's name??? The first man was an accident and a tragedy. The second man was just foolish. May their souls rest in peace!!!
ReplyDeleteOMG...wat a tragedy
ReplyDeleteToo bad
ReplyDeleteNow who is going to bring them down??
ReplyDeleteUnfortunate. This is a recurring unfortunate incident. PHCN should have switched off electric supply before the second victim attempted to rescue the first victim. We must prevent this unfortunate incident in future. Does PHCN not have protocol on fixing faulty cables on their poles? Life is precious and once lost, it is gone for ever! May their souls rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteI don't believe this. NEPA officials NEVER go up a pole without switching the current off first.
ReplyDeleteSo sad, don't like this, two men with great future just gone like that...
ReplyDeleteOmg that's a sad news.
ReplyDeleteMoney is everything!!!
Eyaaaa village tins
ReplyDeleteToo bad
ReplyDeleteY na
ReplyDeleteOluwa o! So unfortunate!

ReplyDeleteTheir village people are very wicked..
ReplyDeleteTragedy...
ReplyDeleteTragedy...

ReplyDeleteDis is real badluck...rip
ReplyDeleteChaiiii.r.i.p
ReplyDeleteWhat a tragedy. No health and safety check? Why do people do things ignorantly in nigeria?
ReplyDeleteSo so sad... In the line of duty...
ReplyDeleteI don't think these men are trained for this job. For God seek they are standard proceeds when you are working on an 11kva transmission line. I pray proper investigation is carried out to know who caused the dead of this young men. God bless Nigeria.
ReplyDeleteFirstly Linda there is no Institution known as PHCN as the Company had been metamorphosed into 11 distribution, 6 generating and 1 transmission Companies. Secondly these new companies do not seem to observe the necessary safety rules. Electricity you know is a good servant but a bad master. Life does not have duplicate, may their souls rest in perfect peace.@mikemezue
ReplyDeleteReally sad! May thier soul rest in peace..
ReplyDeleteNooo this can't be happening; its quite very unfortunate. RIP to them.
ReplyDeleteLinda mee k'anyi fu anya! @uchemacj
This is the result of hiring inexperienced staff and not training them properly cos they're trying to save costs.
ReplyDeleteMy dad was just talking about this problem two days ago. May the souls of these ones rip, I'm sorry to say, butif these guys are not properly trained FAST, this will be a regular occurence.

ReplyDeleteOh may the dead RIP
ReplyDeleteI think some of these electricians and what have u r the architects of their own misfortune. You'll see some of them touching live wire without gloves or proper protective clothing without fear. It's a pity!
