Desmond, on the other hand, said he went to the area to console a mother who had lost her 13-year-old daughter in a canal.

According to him, while on their way to Shitta to retrieve the girl’s body, the bridge that crossed the canal was very fragile, and the residents begged him to help them rebuild it.

Desmond stated that the bridge is no longer in good condition and that he has brought it to the attention of the state government to be repaired.
