'Wonderful' nurse made final phone call to girlfriend before tragic Snowdon fall

A "wonderful and caring" nurse tragically fell to his death while climbing on Mount Snowdon, an inquest heard. Ade Junior Ajayi, 30, was holidaying in north Wales with his partner Eleanor Forde.

They had been staying at Anglesey glamping site with their two dogs when Mr Ajayi, an experienced hillwalker, decided to climb Snowdon on June 6. The trainee nurse, who was employed at Montagu Hospital in Doncaster, told his girlfriend that he would be back by midday so they could go for a walk on the beach with their dogs.

An inquest held in Caernarfon heard that Mr Ajayi called Miss Forde at roughly 9.30am to say he was making his way back down the mountain and was following the train tracks on the Llanberis Pass. She never heard from him again and tried to phone him at lunch-time, but was unable to get through, Wales Online reports.
