Little girl suffers severe burns after transformer explodes at Lagos bus-stop (graphic)

12 year old Adetayo Adefarasin, a student of Government Junior College, Epe, suffered severe burns to her face, chest, arm and legs after a faulty transformer exploded along Broad street, Lagos as she was trying to board a bus while returning from church on September 20th.

She was rushed to General Hospital, Lagos where she's still receiving treatment for her severe injury. The faulty transformer was repaired two days after this incident but according to girl's family who reached out to LIB, PHCN have not made any attempt to help the girl who is still in hospital. Friends say she is a brilliant student and was looking forward to a great future. The family want to sue PHCN over the incident I hear but haven't done so yet. The carelessness of these people is worrisome. They don't do anything until someone gets killed or injured. See photos of Adetayo in hospital after the cut

Good grief!!!! What damage!! Phcn should be sued ASAP. Nonchalant is their watchword. They shd take full responsibility of her treatment. Poor child.

Unknown said...

OMG! This is just too much! I wish her a total recovery.

Bonita Bislam said...

Jeeez! The pain this girl is going through must be unimaginable. Unfortunately, PHCN would rather go about their normal business of robbing the public via inflated bills than work on their shortcomings

MY GOD!! She looks in real bad condition

O my God, poor child ! PHCN must pay for this. . . . .

Omg!
They should sue Phcn, if someone doesn't die or get injured, they won't repair faulty transformers and wires.

yawanow said...

OMG. I thank God for her life and hope government and individuals would help.
Its really sad to know that human life means nothing to our leaders in terms of lack of infrastructure and proper maintenance is a big issue, it only attracts attention when someone is injured or rather killed.

Unknown said...

Too bad

Oh my God. I hope she gets help for surgery.

Lord....This is totally unacceptable!!! The parents should not even follow up PHCN to settle their medical bills....they should be sued heavily to the tune of several hundreds of millions of naira. This little girl's life would be changed forever! Apart from the pain she is passing through she would go through a lot of psychological trauma and not only her but her parents, family and friends. What they need is a good lawyer! Please if you are a professional lawyer and your heart is touched by this, you would be doing the country, the african race and humanity a favour by taking this up personally without even burdening the parents.

TCHAI! SUch a beautiful brainy girl. Really hurts me to know she was trying to board a bus while returning from CHURCH!Don't mean to sound blasphemous here pals but does this in any way mean she wouldn't have been this victim if she had stayed back at home that Sunday? Her parents would have even called her names and flogged her if she had decided not to go to Church that day like she had an inkling something sinister was around the corner. Sometimes I just don't get it! God please surprise this girl for me and bring back joy, confidence and fulfillment in her life IJN.

LIB, kindly advise the family of this girl to go ahead and sue Eko distribition company without any further delay. If they fail the poor girl will not forgive them in the future. The company is in to business and making money per second. They should not disturb the peace of the citizens with inpunity. They should be sued for negligence.

Eko Electricity Distribution Company must bear the medical bill, pay for permanent deformities and give her scholarship to her highest level of education. Companies and Governments will only work and serve better when they begin to pay reparation for bad services and damages done by them. Where are her lawyers?
