An attack by a wild hippopotamus has allegedly led to the death of a pregnant woman along the old bridge crossing point of River Benue in Makurdi, the Benue state capital.

An eyewitness account told The Nation the victim went to the island with other traders to buy vegetables for commercial purposes when the boat was attacked at the shore of the river on Tuesday, April 18, 2023.

The Nation gathered the woman, whose identity was not clear, was being ferried in an engine boat, which developed a fault and transferred to a wooden one.
