Unfortunate Lady perishes crossing bridge as we enter rainy season

We welcomed rain with joy, hoping to achieve a lot unfortunately, yesterday 05.06.26, tragedy struck when a lady from work was swept away by raging water of a swollen river as she tried to cross a bridge. Even this is accidental, I think our government should have known what to do with the bridge since it always floods at the beginning of rainy season.

In life so many disappointing events happen without notice. As we were just beginning to utilize the rain blessings, it picked one of us. And that's that.

Sure it is so unfortunate. She was returning home from work but never made it home.
