Oh dear! generator fumes wipes out an entire family in Lagos [see graphic photos]


Oh dear! This is simply unbelievable. Stories like these really unsettle me. This is the sad reality of many Nigerians. According to reports, an entire family has been wiped out after inhalation of fumes from a generator which was kept in their room in Ipoyewa community of Ikorodu, Lagos. The bodies of the family consisting of a man, his wife and three children were discovered by neighbours last Friday September 12th in their home. According to neighbours, the man bought the generator just two days before the unfortunate incident and was afraid it will be stolen if left outside so he kept it inside his 2-room apartment.
The horror was discovered by a concerned neighbour who peeped through the window after the family failed to come out late Friday morning. They broke down the door to discover the horror. I am still terrified after seeing these pictures. Please be warned, the photos are really graphic.
Residents of the community who are blaming the family's deaths on lack of power in the area claim the last time they had power supply was three years ago. They said they have called on the government many times to help them with light but their efforts have yielded no fruit.
The government really needs to do something about power supply in Nigeria. People can’t keep losing their lives in this horrible manner. See more pictures after the cut and please be warned, it is extremely graphic...

Anyway, please remain happy and spread happiness around. Xoxo
