The mother of the victim, Mama Hadiza, who is a home petty trader on provisions and food-stuff said on that fateful day, her daughter who had gone to sell Kerosene to customers in the morning came back home with four unsold bottles which she left close-by.
"I left two half-filled bottles outside where I cooked and when their father, who had been out returned, he said the half-filled bottles should be properly kept. But before I could go put them away, her sister had opened the two half-filled bottles for her." When she came out, she said she saw her baby writhing in pain and raised an alarm, shouting for help.
They tried to force palm oil into her mouth and then rushed her to the hospital. Mama Hadiza explained that on their way to the hospital, the baby fainted intermittently and excreted severally while his tongue turned black instantly.
When they got to the hospital, they only met the nurses as the doctors are on strike, she was injected and she vomited several times. However, all efforts to save her proved futile as she was declared dead some minutes later.
