Nigerians have been warned not to use a swimming pool without an on-duty life guard.
Benjamin Hundeyin, Police Public Relations Officer, gave the warning on Sunday, June 26, after three siblings reportedly drawned at a swimming pool in an estate in Ajah area of Lagos State.
According to report, that husband and wife had left for an event, leaving the kids aged 14, 7 and 3 at home. They, however, went to the estate pool to swim but drawned in the process.
Their lifeless bodies were later discovered by residents and security personnel, who rushed them to a hospital, where they were confirmed dead.
Upon their arrival, it was gathered that the couple fainted but were revived after some minutes.
