Kwara: 3 Siblings Suffocate To Death Inside Car

Our correspondent reliably gathered that the incident occurred at about 2 p.m. when the three children of the same parent were playing inside the car and mistakenly locked themselves in the parked car.

The car, it was gathered, was borrowed by their father from his sister within the same premises of their quarters for quick domestic use.

Our correspondent further gathered that their mother, Shade Silifat, had gone out to buy noodles for the children’s school meals on Monday when the tragedy occurred.

Their mother, Shade, who returned from where she went to buy noodles and discovered their foot wares outside the parked car, raised an alarm after forcing the doors of the car open.

She reportedly, fainted when she met the three children motionless as a result of suffocation inside the car.

Our correspondent, however, gathered that efforts were made to rescue the lives of the children as they were quickly rushed to Olutayo Clinic, very close to their residence, for medical attention.

The medical director, Dr. Adeyemo , however, directed that they be taken to the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, Ilorin, where they were confirmed dead.

The three siblings were later taken to Muslim cemetery for burial according to Islamic rite.
