A young woman is reported to have drowned at the Suites11 Hotel swimming pool in Jalingo, Taraba State.
An eyewitness said that Clara Joseph, 26, and her friends were swimming at the Suites11 Hotel swimming pool when they noticed she was missing.
“We were at the pool this evening swimming when we noticed that she was struggling in the deep end of the pool. We immediately called the pool manager that someone was drowning but he said he does not know how to swim. We were just there trying frantically to get someone who could help to no avail. She was in the water for over thirty minutes before her lifeless body was eventually dragged out,” the witness said.
The elder brother to the late Clara, Mr Jacob Joseph, who confirmed the sad incident, said that the body has been taken to the Federal Medical Centre, Jalingo to be deposited at the morgue.
The terribly shaken Joseph said he was surprised that a hotel in the league of Suites11 maintains a swimming pool with a pool manager that cannot swim, who watched as a young woman died helplessly.
When our correspondent contacted the consultant in charge of the hotel, Mr Polycap Adi, he said he had no information about what transpired and would get back to him and subsequently respond to calls.
