Four boys between the ages of 13 and 23 months from one family were killed after a mudslide due to the heavy rainfall in Lagos yesterday morning at about 4.15am, buried them alive while they were still sleeping in their home at Orisha Street, Isheri Magodo, Imodium, Ojodu/Berger in Lagos.
NEMA officials say the area is a flood prone area and people living in the area had been told to vacate the area due to the heavy rainfall that is being expected in the coming weeks and the poor topography of the area.
Unfortunately, this particular family failed to heed this advice, losing four of their sons in the mudslide. The distraught father of the boys was inconsolable as he kept on asking "Where is God?. There mother is said to be lying unconcious in a hospital. Sad.
