Death was unfair for the umpteenth time yesterday after tragedy struck without prior notification as a fresh graduate of the Imo State University took his last breath as students poured him water in jubilation of final year completion. What seem to be a jubilation turned into a gathering of sorrow within spilt seconds after the victim, who was running away from a number of students who pursued him to pour dirty water on him, fell into a soak-away pit and got drowned. . . To compound the trouble, the water from the pit was partially passing a light current as the pit is dug beside their transformer where earth-wire is buried.
Many universities have banned the tradition of pouring of water but in their usual manner, many students have remained hell bent on practicing it. R.I.P to the dead.
