A teenage boy was on Thursday, electrocuted in Otukpo, Benue State.
The sad incident occurred around 7.30am at Vanapo Hotel junction.
The victim and two others were riding on a motorcycle to an Abattoir when they got stuck in a puddle of water on the road, close to an electric pole that was poorly insulated.
Unfortunately, the victim fell into the water and was immediately electrocuted by shock waves. He died on the spot while the other passengers escaped unharmed.
The survivors then alerted neighbours who informed the police. With help from the Power Holding Company, the victims remains was evacuated to the mortuary.
