Soon-to-Wed man drowns in Enugu State

A resident in the compound revealed that the flood from the blocked drainage had been consistent in the compound for some time and last week had forced some people to evacuate the apartment.
The women claims that the deceased and his finance don't stay in the apartment anymore but had only come back to pack their property.
When the rain started and the flood was rising, everyone came out of the apartment but he still insisted on bringing out his property.
