Accidental discharge injures two at presidential villa

A female worker at the presidential villa in Abuja is currently on admission at the State House clinic, following an accidental discharge in the villa.

The gun of one of the security operatives at the administrative reception suddenly went off as the officer was attempting to empty it.

In addition to the female worker, the security operative himself sustained injury in the incident, which created a mini-panic.

The woman was injured on her thigh and a part of her back.

No official statement has been issued regarding the development, but sources said the affected individuals were responding to treatment.
