The other victim rushed there to save him. But in the process of trying to rescue him, he too drowned in the river.<\/p>\n<p>The President, Ekimogun Youths Connect, Famakinwa Lucas while confirming the incident said:\u201d Very early this morning, I received a call that two of our youths drowned in Arigba river.<\/p>\n<p>\u201d We immediately moved to the place and made efforts to rescue them. But unfortunately, they were both dead before they could be rescued. Several leaders and government agencies have visited us here.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPreparations are on to bury them as soon as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Famakinwa advised parents to stop their children from going to the river to catch fish and also called on adults who usually pack sand from the river to desist from coming there to forestall future occurrences.<\/p>\n<p>The council chairman, of Ondo West Local Government, Mr Ebenezer Akinsulire who visited the scene of the tragedy, condoled with the people who have lost their loved ones to the unfortunate incident.<\/p>\n<p>Akinsulire assured the people that steps would be taken to forestall such incidents from happening again.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the appropriate quarters would be informed of the tragedy caused in the town as a result of incessant flooding in the town.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tragedy struck in Ondo town, headquarters of Ondo West council area of Ondo state as two persons drowned in a river.
