An 18-year-old male student of Lagos State Skills Acquisition Centre Technical School, Egan, identified as Oluwaseun has reportedly died in an elevator accident in Lagos.

The incident occurred at a construction site in the Ikoyi area of Lagos State on Wednesday, December 6.

Oluwaseun was observing his Industrial Training programme with the company at the time.

According to a construction worker who identified himself simply as Dennis, some of the engineers who resumed work on Thursday noticed that one of the lift shafts was not working.

The engineers later forced the elevator open which led to the discovery of the deceased’s corpse inside.

Dennis said:

“He (Oluwaseun) joined the company working on the site a few months ago. He resumed in the morning and closed almost the same time other workers closed. But the last time he was seen on Wednesday was around 5pm and by the time other engineers closed, they thought he had gone home. When they resumed the next day, they discovered that the lift shaft was not working any longer. They later forced it open around 3pm and saw the IT student lying lifeless inside.”

A police source in the area (namewitheld) told newsmen that some physical injuries were seen on the corpse before he was evacuated.

The police source said:

“We found some physical injuries on the body which suggested that he could have fallen from the lift shaft. His family has been contacted.”

The incident was confirmed by the state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, on Sunday.
