WOMAN GIVES BIRTH INSIDE A COMMERCIAL BUS IN LAGOS

An eyewitness said the conductor started yelling at the woman to get down from the bus, but she could not utter a word as she had fallen into labour. It was said that the conductor, seeing that the woman was in labour, raised the alarm.

But those around took to their heels, thinking a fight had started between the conductor and miscreants. The eyewitness added that when the shout for help persisted, some LASTMA officials and other sympathisers moved closer, only to discover that the woman was in labour.
