A 15-year-old Junior Secondary School student of the Benue State University Technical College, identified simply as Emmanuel, has been electrocuted in Makurdi, the state capital.
The incident happened on Monday in Achussa, a suburb of Makurdi.
Narrating how the incident happened, the deceased’s uncle, Samuel Olokpo, said in the morning of April 19, 2021, men of the Jos Electricity Distribution Company came to the house when everyone had gone to work and disconnected four households from the supply source.
Olokpo said two of the neighbours brought out their bills and were immediately reconnected.
