Motor Boy Electrocuted In Lagos

Tragedy struck the family of a teenage motor boy simply identified as Ahmed, son of Baba Meta when he was electrocuted around Jakande Estate, Oke Afa, Isolo, Lagos.

The late Ahmed was attached to the sawmill at Isheri-Oshun-Ijegun road, junction as a motor boy. On the day of the incident, he took off from the Ijegun sawmill with a vehicle loaded with planks.

It was  gathered that before he reached his destination the vehicle was entangled with electricity cable.

It was in an effort to raise the electricity cable with a plank, that the deceased was electrocuted. He died instantly. He was buried shortly after the accident in line with Islamic injunction.

Both Ijegun and Isheri Oshun Sawmill mourned the Late Ahmed and did not open for business for a day because he was a motor boy well known for his hard work at both sawmills.
