A 32-year-old water driller, Amusan Olanrewaju, tragically lost his life while working inside a well in the Laderin area of Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.
On Thursday, it was gathered from the state police command that the tragic incident occurred on Wednesday at about 10 a.m. in Abule-Oko, Laderin.
It was disclosed that Olanrewaju had been hired by a resident to dig a well on their property.
While working inside the well, it was learnt that a bucket filled with sand, being lifted with a rope, fell on Olanrewaju’s head, knocking him unconscious immediately.
