For five years, Miss Ifunanya Miracle from Abia State burnt the midnight oil to better her life and that of her family by rigorously pursuing her academic programme in Quantity Surveying at Nnamdi Azikiwe University, only to lose her life after completing the course.

Although the circumstances surrounding her death were initially hazy, the Chief Safety Officer, CSO, of UNIZIK, Chief Ken Chukwurah, while speaking with Saturday Vanguard, threw more light on what happened.

“The boy, also a student, played a prank on the girls and this incident happened at 8.20 pm on that fateful day. The boy, who was sitting with them in the Keke, cracked a joke with them in the tricycle by saying ‘what if I collect your phones as you are moving about at this late hour’?.

“Out of fear, the girls jumped out of the tricycle and one of them, Miracle, hit her head on the tarred road. Her colleague was lucky as she sustained injuries and she is still being treated. By the time they got to the hospital, Miracle’s case was serious and after battling all night, she unfortunately gave up, while her colleague is yet to be discharged”.

Chukwurah said that to show that it was not a robbery case, it was the boy who took them to the University Medical Center first, from where they were taken to Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital, Amaku where Miracle eventually died.

The CSO said the boy, whose name was not given, stayed in the hospital with them till the following day, adding that his action confirmed that it was not robbery, but an expensive joke he played on the girls.

Similar pranks are played even against old market women in the name of skits.

Yet, many are against the new policy for skit makers.

"The CSO said the boy, whose name was not given, stayed in the hospital with them till the following day, adding that his action confirmed that it was not robbery, but an expensive joke he played on the girls."

This why Nigeria is such a SHITHOLE!

A stupid prank played by a USELESS boy who tried to ROB 2 ladies as at 8:30 in the night led to the DEATH of one of the girls and SEVERE injuries to the other YET a National Newspaper REFUSES to publish his name.

That's NONSENSE!

Also, his attempts must have been very FORCEFUL to convince NOT one but TWO people to jump from a moving vehicle.

The idea that it was a prank is LAUGHABLE! It's a robbery gone wrong.

Very expensive joke prank.
RIP to her.



Wittyness
