“I think the tree fell after the heavy rain that fell between Saturday and Sunday,” he said.

Emmanuel, the student who spoke with IndyPress, called for the immediate removal of the tree from the road, while stating that the narrowness caused by the fall of the tree poses danger.

“They should find something to do about it. The road is narrow,” he said.

“But I’m aware. The management is aware of the issue and the tree will be properly removed by them,” Elemide said.
