Panic swept through Igando Omolade Bus Stop in Lagos after a young mother suddenly collapsed while attending to her 7-month-old baby. Sympathetic bystanders immediately came to her aid, but attempts to reach her family proved futile, as her phone contained no SIM card.
Officers from the Igando Police Station promptly intervened and rushed her to Alimosho General Hospital, where she is reportedly still unconscious. According to eyewitnesses, the woman was a familiar face in the area, often seen begging for food as she struggled to care for her infant. A local trader disclosed that she had once pleaded for employment but was turned away because she had a baby.
The incident serves as a heartbreaking reminder of the quiet hardships and unseen battles many people endure every day.
