Spokesperson of the Ogun Police Command Omolola Odutola
Police authorities in Ogun State have confirmed the death of a steel worker Yahaya Ibrahim.
The deceased was killed by an engine roller after slipping on the machine at the firm’s factory – along the Sagamu-Ogijo Expressway in Ogun State – in the early hours of Sunday.
The spokesperson of the Ogun Police Command Omolola Odutola confirmed the incident, saying that the body of the deceased had been deposited at the state-owned Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital (OOUTH) morgue in Sagamu.
“Our men on traffic inspection visited the scene when we received a distress call. It was an industrial accident. The body has been deposited at the OOUTH morgue in Sagamu,” Odutola stated.
The incident occurred around 4:50 am on Sunday when the deceased was working at the company’s plant.
An eyewitness revealed that efforts by other staff members to rescue the victim were unsuccessful as the roller reportedly crushed him to death. (Channels TV)
