The decomposing bodies of the victims were found in a room at their hostel after security agents, in collaboration with the parents of one of the victims, forcefully broke the door on Sunday.
The probable cause of their death was hinged on generator fumes which was reportedly perceived when the door to their room was opened. However, Echeng in a statement on Monday advised the general public on the dangers of carbon monoxide. He said, “It is a dangerous substance that is very toxic to health. This substance when inhaled can cause serious damage to the body and can lead to death. The substance mostly emanates from generators, water heaters, coal-burning appliances or any gasoline-powered engine.
“The command has ordered a comprehensive investigation into the discovery of two lifeless bodies on 20-02-2022, in a room at a student lodge in Awka.
