Church. He was assigned in Sawtoken One, Barrobo district.
The deceased was a father of many children and a dedicated classroom teacher. He had left his family in Borrobo on early Thursday, April 29, 2021 to receive his salary in Pleebo.
Eyewitnesses described as very critical, leaving several body parts of the deceased fractured, including his head, while the rider of the bike was rushed to the J.J. Dossen Hospital in Harper City, the provincial capital.
Locals lamented that the sudden death of Joe Kouh has created serious setback to the school system in the district, as schools shot their doors to pay respect to his sudden passing.
