City Round gathered that the man died while stealing a cable from a transformer in the area.

It was further learnt that the incident happened a few days after the cables were replaced after the former ones were stolen by suspected louts in the area.
A tweep identified only as Teewhy, who posted the video, noted that residents of the area often thought the victim was an official of the Eko Electricity Distribution Company.
