Flood kills two in Akwa Ibom

Two persons have reportedly died following more than an hour of heavy downpour which caused flood in many streets in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom state capital.

Our correspondent reported that the rain started at about 5.30pm on Sunday and did not stop until about 6.45pm. She stated that residents of the area called the police who promptly responded and carried away the corpse.“We woke up this morning to find the corpse of a man and a woman in the gutter along Atiku Abubakar lane. Since we could not identify them, we called the police who came and carried the corpse away,” she said.
