The Kwara State Fire Service said on Saturday that it recovered two bodies from a river at Akerebiata area, in Ilorin, the state capital.
The two corpses, according to a statement signed by the agency’s Head of Media and Publicity, Hassan Adekunle, were recovered from a river opposite Olusola Saraki Abattoir along Sobi Army Barracks Road, Ilorin.
Adekunle said that findings by the Fire Service revealed that the car carrying the victims fell into the river while the driver was struggling to navigate through the flood, adding that it suddenly got stuck while the flood pushed the car and its occupants into the river.
“Today, October 1, 2022, the Kwara State Fire Service has removed two human bodies and a Toyota Yaris car with registration number, APP544E, from a river at opposite Olusola Saraki Abattoir, along Sobi Road in Ilorin, the capital of Kwara State.
Similarly, the woes of residents affected by the flood ravaging different parts of Kogi State have worsened with the scarcity of potable water.
Our correspondent who went round Lokoja metropolis, which is the worst hit, on Saturday gathered that the scarcity was caused by the flood which affected the state waterworks where water is processed and pumped for public consumption.
At Gadumo New Layout, one of the areas close to River Niger with many of its residents affected by the flood, the pumps were seen dry, a situation some of the residents said had remained the same since last Sunday.
An official of the state Ministry of Water Resources, who spoke with our correspondent on the condition of anonymity, said, “We can only treat and pump water for public consumption when the flood leaves this area.”
