Another Sergeant, Ijebor Sunday, and Ope Ogungbemi are still being tracked by the recovery team.
 
Hundreds of residents, who witnessed the recovery of the bodies from the stream, stood in awe while the action lasted.

A relative of the Iyiolas, Bunmi Kudus, said Wole, 24, who lived in Lagos, was visiting his family in Ibadan when the incident happened.
 
Kudus disclosed that Wole had his marriage introduction 11 days ago and was preparing for his wedding ceremony.
