Tragedy struck on Monday at Osisioma, a suburb of Aba, the commercial capital of Abia State when four- year-old male twins, suffocated to death inside a car parked in front of their house. The boys, Chukwuemeka and Chiemela Okechukwu, the only male children of their parents and who were in nursery school at the Stella and Maris School in the city were with their mother.
Mrs. Ngozi Okechukwu in the morning hours on that fateful day as they could not go to school for
undisclosed reasons. After a while, one of their
pregnant neighbours went into labour and Mrs.
Okechukwu who is a nurse, was called in for
assistance. When the mother of the twins saw the
condition of her pregnant neighbour, she arranged and took her to hospital and allowed the twins whose elder siblings went to school, to play with other children in the compound.
However, as the twins were playing, nobody knew
when they left the compound and went to where
some cars were displayed for sale beside the Enugu/Port Harcourt Expressway, near the Osisioma Junction. Daily Sun gathered that the two kids opened and entered one of the cars on display, unnoticed and locked themselves in under the heat of the scorching sun. When at about 1 pm the elder sisters came back from school and could not see their younger brothers who they knew did not go to school that day, they raised the alarm.
Their father, Levi Okechukwu Onwusoamaonye from Ahiaba Ubi in Isiala Ngwa North Local Government Area, who had gone to work was alerted and he came home. A search party was said to have been immediately raised, which combed the area but to no avail. It was around 4 pm that the children were seen inside the car already dead through suffocation. They were rushed to a nearby hospital where doctors confirmed them dead.
My heart go out to the family of the deceased kids. Its a pain to lose a loved one. Its more pain to lose two, more as they were just kids. Adeiu!
