According to reports, a primary school teacher, Mrs Agnes Baiyere had allegedly hired one of the deceased, David, to dig a well in front of her newly constructed building in the area. David then invited three other of his colleagues to execute the job. They dug the well up to about 25 feet for about a week and even plastered the outer part of the well when two of them went back last night to evacuate some broken blocks that fell into the well.
However, when one of them entered into the well, he was said to have complained of dizziness which led to the other person quickly coming to the aid of his friend, but the two were mysteriously trapped into the well and could not come out.
The remaining two men rushed to the scene and attempted to rescue their trapped colleagues. Sadly as they got into the well, they were trapped in the well and could not come out.
Members of staff of the Abuja Electricity Distribution Company, (AEDC), Kabba office, who are around the area, helped evacuate the remains of the four deceased persons.
Eyewitness account said as they were being rushed to the General Hospital, Kabba, one of the deceased opened his eyes after a pastor prayed for them but he died as they were stepping into the hospital.
One of the sympathisers said David, who attended the new month service in his church on the fateful day, just got married after completing his NYSC last year. May they Rest In Peace.
