Safety in bathroom: The potential risk and danger of electrocution faced in the use of the bath tub/shower water taps and hot water heater

By Anonymous, Lagos.

Please be strongly advised of the potential risk and danger of electrocution faced in the use of
the bath tub/shower water taps and hot water heater.

As We Just Lost Someone(Mr Tony) to Electrocution in his Hotel Room Shower, many more cases have been coming Up, Last week, a vibrant lady just a couple of days to her 50th birthday, got electrocuted and died while having a bath in their home in Lagos. She was found stuck to the shower water tap, clearly being
electrocuted. It was confirmed that the problem most probably came from the water heater, where
it has allowed electricity to mix with water (malfunctioning water heating unit).

My candid advice and take on this is that all my loved ones, friends and persons I know do ensure
that the water heater is switched off from the wall prior to getting into the bath or under the shower. 

Particular attention should be given to the use of water heater facilities afforded during short stays at hotels, friends or relations lodges.

Under no circumstance should the bathroom water heater 'SWITCH' be left 'ON' while having or getting under the shower or into bath tub.

Please share this important information with friends and loved ones accordingly.
