Flood occasioned by heavy rainfall on Wednesday evening swept away a 13-year-old girl in Awka, Anambra State capital.

The girl, whose guardian operates a food stall along Ziks Avenue, Awka, was trying to rescue their wheelbarrow, which was being carried away by flood, when she mistakenly missed her step and fell into a drainage.

A source who witnessed the incident said the girl was immediately swept away by the fast moving tide of the flood, and her body was eventually found down the road.

โ€œThe girl was trying to rescue their wheelbarrow, which was being swept away by flood.

โ€œThey were two girls, but one of them, who was the eldest missed her step and fell into the drainage, and was immediately swept away.

โ€œPeople around the area rallied round and rescued the girl in a drainage down the road, but before then, she was already dead.

โ€œThe woman she was helping was wailing helplessly under the rain, and everybody pitied her. From what we gathered, she was not the mother of the girls, they were girls who were helping her in her shop.

โ€œShe kept lamenting, asking herself what story she would tell the parents of the child. It was such a horrible sight,โ€ the source said.

Ziks Avenue, in the heart of Awka metropolis, is usually flooded after heavy rainfall.
