VANDAL CRUSHED TO DEATH UNDER COLLAPSED TRANSMISSION TOWER IN DELTA STATE A suspected vandal has been crushed to death under a collapsed vandalised transmission tower along the 330kV Ughelli-Benin transmission line in Delta State. The incident was discovered during a line patrol carried out by the Delta Sub-Region, Lines Maintenance Department of the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), following the tripping of the line on earth fault on the Ughelli - Benin 330kV Transmission line. A statement by the TCN indicates that the patrol team traced the fault to Tower 101, which had collapsed. The body of the suspected vandal was found crushed between the tower members. Tower 101 on the adjacent Ughelli - Sapele 330kV transmission line had also been vandalized.
T. Joshua the founder of Synagoue Church of All Nations in Ikotun,reported the 25 suspects after he found out out they are extorting money and defrauding genuine worshipers.The suspects were arrested by the police and brought before Ejigbo Magistrate court today,to be arraigned but their arraignment was deferred following the absence of the magistrate.They were returned to the police station where they would be detained till thursday when they would be arraigned.It was gathered that the suspects and others now at large constituted themselves into agents,moving round the church both day and night soliciting for customers who will rent their apartments.It was learnt that the suspects allegedly defraud innocent worshipers who could not afford to secure the church accommodation because of the price.Since a guest house collapsed at the church on 12th of September 2014,worshipers have been finding it difficult to get accommodation.The suspected fake agents reportedly capitalised on the situation to defraud the members.Though some of the suspects escaped,but the ones that were arrested will face the law.
