Lightning strikes woman dead and leaves her 3-year-old daughter with severe burns (video)

A lightening strike has killed a mother and left her 3-year-old daughter with severe burns.

In a video posted online, the girl is seen writhing in pain as good Samaritans gathered to take her to the hospital.

A lady identified as Abiodun who rescued the girl, said she found her lying on a table on Sunday afternoon.

“The girl slept on a table outside overnight after her mother died,” Abiodun wrote, adding: “We met her on that table this afternoon groaning in pains. She’s just 3-years-old.”

Abiodun added that the Lagos State Government declined to take the girl after they came for her mother’s corpse.

This morning, Abiodun gave an update. She said Boluwatife is responding to treatment.

Members of the public decided to take the girl to the hospital. As they arrived the hospital, Abiodun said they asked for money before treatment could be administered.

“Social services asked me to pay for the test and treatments for the girl with the burns if not she won’t be attended to.”

This morning, Abiodun gave an update. She said Boluwatife is responding to treatment.
