A 24-year-old survivor of the party at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN), Enugu State, where four students died and six others were hospitalised, has recounted how he lost consciousness while cleaning up after another attendee vomited.
The survivor disclosed that it was his first time consuming alcohol, adding that he collapsed after cleaning a curtain stained with vomit and attempting to return a bucket of water.
He said the gathering took place in an apartment in the Hilltop area of Nsukka, where about 10 people were present. He also revealed that a generator was running outside the corridor while the apartment’s windows were shut.
The survivor, who is currently receiving medical attention, said he was recovering but still unable to use his legs properly.
He also disclosed that he could not establish whether the alcoholic drinks consumed at the gathering had been contaminated.
Meanwhile, police investigations into the incident, which claimed the lives of four students and left six others hospitalised, are ongoing.
