Iron melting

A 25-year-old contract staff of a construction company has died after he allegedly jumped into an iron melting pot of the factory located on Shagamu Road, Ikorodu.

Confirming the incident, the spokesperson of the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) SP Benjamin Hundeyin, said the safety officer of the company, whose name was also not mentioned, reported the case to the Sagamu Road Police Division on August 3, at about 6.00 p.m.

SP Hundeyin said that the safety officer reported that on the same date, at about 3.15 p.m., the contract staff attached to the AOD Section of the company allegedly ran to the iron melting pot, which was out of bounds to all the staff during operation.

“He jumped into it and all efforts made by his colleagues to stop him proved abortive. His body was completely melted. Detectives from the station visited the scene of the crime. The family of the deceased has since been contacted, while the investigation is ongoing,” Hundeyin said
