37-year-old man dies from electrocution in Delta
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

While watching TV in Sapele, Delta State, a 37-year old man died from electrocution in the process of changing over from generator power to main grid.

The incident was said to have happened on Sunday August 6, at about 1:35 pm along Oleh road in the timber town.

William Madu, who works with a water processing company, was watching a sitcom in his house when the power company restored power. He stood up to put change over but was electrocuted.

A source told Vanguard: “He left his one-room to switch off the generator set and the next thing we heard was a little boy screaming, we dashed out to find him struggling with the wire and we had to switch off power from the building before we could rescue him.”
