Abantu abangamashumi amathathu anesixhenxe abarhanelwa ukuba babambe imigodi ngokungekho mthethweni basweleke ngelixa beselugcinweni lweNigerian Civil Defense and Security Corps (NSCDC) kwiLizwe laseNiger. Irhuluneli yeli lizwe, uMohammed Umaru Bago, uqinisekisile inani lababhubhileyo waza wabhengeza uphando ngeemeko zentlekele.
Amaxhoba ayephakathi kwabo babanjwa nge-15 ne-16 kaSeptemba ngexesha lomkhankaso wokulwa nokwembiwa kwemigodi okungekho mthethweni kwicandelo le-MI Wushishi naseLukoto. Izidumbu zabo zafunyanwa kusasa nge-17 kaSeptemba kwiziko lokugcina abantu ababanjwe yi-NSCDC eMinna.
Ekuqaleni i-NSCDC iphakamise isifo esinokubakho ukuchaza ukufa kwabantu. Nangona kunjalo, ingxelo yobuntlola ecatshulwe yi-AFP iphakamisa enye ingcamango: ukuxinana okukhulu kunye nokungena komoya ngokwaneleyo kwiindawo zokugcina abantu. Omnye osindileyo ukwathi amabanjwa angama-65 ayexinaniswe kwisisele esingenamoya uneleyo. Ezi nkcukacha zisaza kuqinisekiswa luphando.
Izidumbu zithunyelwe kwiSibhedlele iMinna General ukuze zihlolwe ngonyango kwaye zihlolwe izidumbu. Kukwasekwe ikhomishini yophando ngurhulumente waseNigeria. Irhuluneli ibhengeze iintsuku ezintathu zokuzila, ngelixa amapolisa eqhubeka nophando lwawo ukuze kuchongwe iimeko ezichanekileyo zokufa.
