Saturday, October 11, 2025 - Tragedy struck in the Oke Aro area of Akure, near the Dele Bread axis, as a nursing mother reportedly d!ed while breastfeeding her baby.
According to eyewitnesses, the woman, said to be a yam
seller, was seen earlier in the morning exchanging greetings with neighbours
before sitting down to breastfeed her child.
"She suddenly began to complain of weakness and
tiredness. In an attempt to regain her strength, she drank a bottle of
Coca-Cola but collapsed and d!ed on the spot,” an eyewitness told Ondo Govt
newspaper, The Hope on Thursday, October 9, 2025.
Some sympathizers at the scene suggested that her d3ath
might be linked to malnutrition or inadequate feeding, as she was believed not
to have been eating properly.
She was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital, but medical
personnel on duty confirmed that she was brought in d3ad.
Her husband, a commercial driver, was said to have been
contacted but had not returned home as of the time of filing this report,
having left earlier for his daily transportation business.
Sympathizers trooped to the family’s residence, describing
the deceased as calm, friendly, and hardworking.
