โ€œOur team arrived at the scene of the incident at approximately 16:40 hours and noticed some dried blood stains around the well,โ€ Abdullahi stated. โ€œWhen the rescue team peered into the well, they discovered the decomposing body of a man, approximately 25 years old, whose identity remains unknown and unfamiliar to residents in the area.โ€
