Saminu Abdullahi, spokesman for the Kano State Fire Service, confirmed the disaster in a statement made in Kano on Friday.
“We received an emergency call, and we sent our rescue team to the scene but Yusuf was brought out of the pond unconscious.”
“Our men conveyed him to Karaye Specialist Hospital when a doctor confirmed him dead,’’ Abdullahi stated.
