Generator fumes kill man, wife & 3 children in Ikorodu


Generator fumes has killed a man, his wife and all his 3 children in 
Ipoyewa community of Ikorodu, Lagos. The bodies of the family was
 discovered by neighbours last Friday September 12th in their home.
 All five suffocated to death after inhaling fumes from a generator which
 they'd kept in their room. 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.
 
When the family failed to come out late Friday morning, a neighbor 
peeped through their window, saw bodies, and alerted others. They 
broke down the door to discover the horror. And when I say horror,
 I mean horror. The photos are really graphic so please be warned.

Residents of the community are blaming the family's deaths on lack
 of power in the area. They claim the last time they had light was 3 years
 ago, that every house in the area uses a generator. They said they have
 called on the government many times to help them with light but their 
efforts have yielded no fruit. See the pics after the cut.. *warning - graphic content*

People need to be educated about the dangers of generator fumes...
