TRAGEDY!!! Generator Fume kill 5 Month-Old-Baby And Mother In Ondo

On March 10, a mother and her five-month-old child perished from generator fumes they ingested while sleeping in their home in the Owo village of Ondo state.

According to Vanguard, the family bought the generator on Monday, March 6, and it was the generator that led to their demise on Friday night.

Tawa, the dead, and her husband worked at the Federal Medical Centre, or FMC, in Owo.

Tawa was said to have called her elder sister on Thursday evening, to inform her that her baby was sick and that she would be bringing the baby to her.

It was gathered that when the sister got to Tawa’s place of work at about 1pm, she was told that neither her Tawa nor the husband was at work. The deceased’s elder sister and the couple’s co-workers reportedly went to their house and met the door locked.

They had to break in and then found them lying unconscious, while the baby was dead. They were rushed to the FMC, where the wife later died, while the husband is said to be in critical condition.

The state police command is yet to comment on the sad development.
