A couple, Bassey Effiong (27), his wife, Glory (21) and her younger
sister, Emem (16), were reportedly killed by generator fumes in Ikot
Omin on the outskirts of Calabar, the Cross River State capital.
This sad event occurred on Sunday night, when the couple turned on their generating set and placed it on the corridor close to the room, where they slept but fume from the generating set was said to have gained entry into the room in large quantity and suffocated the couple along with Emem, the wife’s younger sister.
They were found dead several hours later by a naval
officer, David Ekanem, Bassey’s uncle, who decided to go over to the
couple's house after several attempts to reach Bassey on his mobile
phone was futile and on getting there at 5 pm, Monday, he met the
tragic sight.This sad event occurred on Sunday night, when the couple turned on their generating set and placed it on the corridor close to the room, where they slept but fume from the generating set was said to have gained entry into the room in large quantity and suffocated the couple along with Emem, the wife’s younger sister.
May their rest in peace.
