Adedeji’s body found in a river in Canada

The body of a 34-year-old Nigerian, Oluwaseun Samson found inside a river in Canada.

Adedeji was declared missing a few days ago.

The deceased was on vacation with friends in Canada when he got missing on June 18.

The spokesman for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Todd Kaufmann, confirmed the development on Tuesday.

Kaufman said Adedeji’s body was pulled out from the Okanagan Lake by its Underwater Recovery Team.

He said the deceased jumped into the Okanagan Lake from a boat between Rattlesnake Island and Squally Point near Peachland when he went on a fishing expedition with friends.

“The Underwater Recovery Team had employed high-tech sonar to search where Mr. Adedeji was last seen almost a week ago,”
the spokesman said.

“The reason we were using this technology is we were searching depths between 50 and 60 metres, and we don’t dive beyond 48 metres.

“It sends out sonar signals and sends back images showing what’s on the bottom.”
