The corpse of a 34-year-old Nigerian, Oluwaseun Samson Adedeji, who was declared missing some days ago has been found inside a river in Canada.
The deceased went on vacation with friends in Canada and was declared missing on June 18.
While confirming the development, Royal Canadian Mounted Police’s spokesperson, Todd Kaufmann, said Adedeji’s body was pulled out of the Okanagan Lake by its Underwater Recovery Team.
He said Adedeji jumped into the Okanagan Lake from a boat between Rattlesnake Island and Squally Point around Peachland when he went on a fishing expedition with his friends.
The spokesman said: “The Underwater Recovery Team had employed high-tech sonar to search where Mr Adedeji was last seen almost a week ago.
“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.”
