Three local miners of laterite in Mai’adua Local Government Council Area of Katsina State have died after being trapped underground while three others sustained serious injuries. It took locals about two hours before the bodies were dug out of the ground.
The men were excavating laterite when unexpectedly the debris caved in. The three men that survived were the first to be rescued.
Commenting on the unfortunate incident, Chairman of Mai’adua Local Government Council, Engineer Abba Yusuf said that the council would take precautionary measures against a re-occurrence of the incident. He warned locals to stop mining laterite until the council comes up with new rules.
