Tragedy struck on May 6th when an electric wire fell on a 24-year old nursing mother as she was crossing the ever busy Oshodi express way.
Yewande Busari(pictured above) was killed carrying her baby Pamilerin on her back, fortunately he survived the electrocution.
According to Sahara reporters, the streetlight pole that caused the tragedy was said to have been left unattended by PHCN officials at the Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company.
Speaking on the sad incident, the elder brother to the deceased, lamented the nonchalance of the government and the electrical company in charge of the streetlights.
“We have not heard anything from the government or seen anybody from them since my sister died. It was a government property that killed my sister, but nobody has come to pay us a visit,” he said. See photo of the child and his late mother below. Very sad.
