Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Parents of a Primary 2 pupil, Ojiyovwin Salvation, are lamenting the untimely death of their son at Eghereka Primary School, Ewu town in Ughelli South Local Government Area of Delta State.<\/p>\n

Salvation met his untimely death yesterday when the block of six classrooms that collapsed fell on him and injured three others.<\/p>\n

According to reports, the dilapidated building collapsed under the heavy rain.<\/p>\n

The block of six classrooms, which was without a roof, was said not to have been in use just as prompt efforts led to the rescue of the other pupils.<\/p>\n

Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, has sent condolences to the family of the pupil who died.<\/p>\n

The commiseration was contained in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Festus Ahon, who described the incident as most unfortunate.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have just received a report of an unfortunate incident. The Governor commiserates with the family of the deceased pupil, the management and staff of the school, as well as other pupils injured in the unfortunate incident,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

While appreciating prompt efforts that led to the quick rescue of the injured pupils, Governor Oborevwori said the Local Government Council Chairman, Dr Lucky Avweromre, has visited the scene to provide necessary support to the surviving victims of the building collapse and also visited the family of the deceased pupil.<\/p>\n

He stated that words were inadequate to fully comfort the grieving family over their sad loss and prayed that God Almighty would grant the families, the school and the community the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss and that God\u2019s consoling presence would comfort them in these trying times.<\/p>\n
