Can the death of three senior staff of Power Holdings Company of Nigeria (PHCN), Egbin thermal station at Ijede near Ikorodu be attributed to "juju" power or is it a mere coincidence?

This has been a big question that could not get instant and definite answer at the Egbin power generating station. There has been an alleged juju scare in the station in the recent time while accusing fingers are being pointed at the senior officials who are not in the good books of the junior officials.

Sunday Trust gathered that one Engineer Adeleye, died after seeing the juju prepared in a calabash and placed in front of his office one morning not long ago.

Another Engineer, one Mr. Olanitori who was the Head of Maintenance Department in the station died in a mysterious way after relaxing in the PHCN's Egbin Club House. Sources at the station said the late Engineer drank some bottles of drinks, played chess game with some people in the Club House only to return home and collapse. He died few hours after he had writhed in pains, complaining of stomach ache. It was gathered that he was being rushed to a nearby hospital by his neighbours but gave up the ghost before he got to the hospital. The nature of his sudden death led to some junior workers believing that he was poisoned.

Sources said that another staff simply identified as Mrs. Shodeyi died after she wrote petition over alleged fraud in the accounts section
of the station. It was gathered that the woman died just a few days to the hearing of the petition by an Internal Panel of Enquiry set up by authorities to look into the issues in her petition.

However, the sudden death of Mrs. Shodeyi marked the end of the panel's investigation into allegation of massive fraud going on in the PHCN thermal station as nothing is heard anymore about the petition or the panel, one of the staff noted.

Meanwhile, members of staff in the station have become extremely careful even before entering their offices, visiting the Club House or discussing any misdeeds in the station for fear of been charmed with juju.
