19 year-old boy electrocuted in K’ba



By Doh Bertrand Nua in Kumba
The populations of Buea road Kumba were left in total confusion at the weekend as a 19-year-old boy was electrocuted at his business place at the SawaLamboneighbourhood in Kumba. The young man whose name we got as Clovert was an owner of a small provision store by the roadside where he sells fermented soft drinks in a long big fridge and other items.
                Report holds that, on that fateful evening, Clovert was trying to clean his fridge without disconnecting it from the main switch on the wall. As he open the door of the fridge, eyewitness account says he held the door and remained standing and speechless, only to be realize by onlookers that he was electrocuted.

                Some onlookers who saw what happened managed to push him with a wooden chair and as he fell on the ground, they struggled to rescue his life by rushing him to the hospital but he gave up the ghost on the way. Little did he know his own fridge will take away his life.
