How my three children suffocated, died in my husband’s borrowed car – Kwara woman groans

Shade Silifat Abdulkadir, the mother of the three children who suffocated to death in a parked car in Ilorin, Kwara State capital, last week Sunday, has broken her silence on the tragic incident.

In an interview with journalists on the last moments of the deceased children, 37-year-old Shade appealed to Nigerians to come to her aid.

The first child, Maryam was 10 years old, Nudrah, the second child was 8 years and the third, Mohammed, was 2.

All three children died after suffocating in the car parked in their residence.

The vehicle was borrowed by their father from his elder brother.

Speaking at her family house, Ile Magaji, Taiwo Isale, in Ilorin, Shade pleaded with all mothers to come to her aid.

Narrating the incident, Shade said, “It happened on Sunday around some minutes to 2:00 pm, shortly after I finished cooking rice for them. It was my second daughter, Nudrah, who told me that she would not eat rice in school the next day (Monday) and that she would prefer spaghetti.
