Heavy downpour has killed more than five traders at the ongoing trade fair organised by the North East Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mine and Agriculture and supported the six states of the region.
It was gathered that the rain that started yesterday's night killed about two people at the spot while three injured victims died at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital.
One of the hospital's authorities who spoke with our Correspondent on the condition of anonymity said that “It is true that we received a certain number of casualties from the scene of the incident.
“Unfortunately, two were brought in dead, while three had severe injuries from the head to the abdomen and succumbed shortly after arrival. Currently, we have three patients with multiple fractures who are receiving treatment and are gradually improving.”
Details shortly…
