Three days after floods swept away a Nigerian man along the East-West Road in Bayelsa state, he was rescued alive.
According to community manager Akpos Malafakumo Best, who posted photos of the man on social media, the man was discovered alive in the same location.
Akpos said the man was in the water for three days, holding onto a stick for three days and three nights before he was discovered.
The photos Akpos shared showed rescuers using a canoe to transport the stranded man to safety.
“This young man was swept away by the water current at this very spot East-West Road 3days ago. He had been in the water holding onto a stick for 3 days and night, only to be rescued today alive. Please, don’t travel East-West & Ugheli-Bayelsa roads for now.” Akpo’s wrote on Twitter.
