Zadabin, who lives in Dutsen-Alhaji in the FCT, was said to be working with other colleagues near the Open University Centre, along the Abuja-Kubwa expressway, around 1pm on Friday, Dec. 6, when tragedy struck.
A female sweeper, Anna Zadabin, has been reported dead after a high-voltage electrical wire fell on her in Abuja.
Zadabin, who lives in Dutsen-Alhaji in the FCT, was said to be working with other colleagues near the Open University Centre, along the Abuja-Kubwa expressway, around 1pm on Friday, Dec. 6, when tragedy struck.
One of her relatives, who simply gave her name as Hajara, told Abuja Metro yesterday that the corpse of the deceased was earlier deposited at the Kubwa General Hospital’s morgue before it was retrieved and buried in her family compound.
She said, “That was the wish of the deceased, that she should be buried on the day she passed on.”
She further explained that the deceased used to work from 6am and close by 3pm on a daily basis.
“Some of them used to start the street cleaning from the Dutsen-Alhaji gate and move down to the expressway.
‘’Her schedule of duty often started from a billboard along the expressway to the Phase 2 area, and thereafter she would cross to the other lane, to repeat the same thing, as her daily work.’’
The District Head of the Dutsen-Alhaji, Alhaji Abubakar Bako, confirmed the incident.
