CORPS MEMBER DROWNS IN BAUCHI RIVER WHILE CELEBRATING PASSING OUT

‎”On Thursday at about 8.30 pm the command received a report from one Mahadi Sada, a zonal inspector of NYSC, that on the same day at about 5 pm, some corps members attached to Bauchi State Board of Internal Revenue went on picnic at Gubi dam to celebrate the end of their service year’, he said.

“Three of the corps members boarded a canoe but unfortunately, the canoe was faulty, and so water drifted into it, resulting in the canoe capsizing. However, two of the corps members were rescued by villagers fishing in the Dam while one Joseph Adebayo, 26, who hails from Ogun State, got drowned and eventually died,” he said.
