There was confusion yesterday at
Nadangoro area of Katsina metropolis as no fewer than 10 persons were feared
dead and many others hospitalised after a wedding meal.
The incident, Vanguard learned, is
already causing panic among residents of the area, as most of the guests, who
ate or drank anything at the ceremony, are now scared with many of them
undergoing treatment in various hospitals in the town.
It was learned that most of the
affected victims had complained of stomach ache shortly after leaving the
ceremony, while some died hours after being admitted in the hospitals.

poisoning,” the staff said.
