Technician Electrocuted At Lagos House Of Assembly

An Air Conditioner (AC) technician was on Tuesday electrocuted in the Lagos State House of Assembly while carrying out routine maintenance of some of the appliances in the assembly complex.

It was gathered that the young man simply identified as Tobi was said to have been killed while working on the ACs at the Assembly chamber, while there was a downpour.

Although details of the tragic incident were still sketchy as of the time of filing this report, it was gathered that the late Tobi was working alongside two of his colleagues who had no idea initially that he had been electrocuted.

It was gathered that the deceased was rushed to the staff clinic at the secretariat, nearby but could not be revived.

Source said Tobi and his colleagues opted to work on the AC maintenance since legislative activity was not going on, as the lawmakers are currently on a short recess which is expected to last till November 13.

His relatives who were contacted were seen weeping in the House complex.
