In the Ondo State local government area of Alade-Idanre, a middle-aged man was killed by lightning.



While attempting to cut down a tree, the victim, a chainsaw operator known in the neighborhood as "Shosho," passed away instantly.

Sources claim that nobody had attempted to remove the "Koleagbe" tree in Ayo Camp, which is situated on the community's Oke-Oko axis.

The absence of rain is said to have caused the lightning strike, shocking the locals.

It "was like an electric spark and a heavy thunder shook the entire community," according to one of the sources.
"We were astounded and could understand the thunder strike's mystery. We can tell that it was out of the ordinary based on how the man was killed.
Another source said, “the tree was planned to be cut down without the owner’s permission by the operator and his sponsor.”

The Owa of Idanre, Oba Fredrick Aroloye, had to step in as a result of the situation before community traditionalists could carry out the funeral rites for the deceased.

Shosho, who was from the eastern part of the country, was buried at the scene of the accident.
