Today, officials of the Federal Road Safety Commission took delivery of a baby girl while her mum was travelling on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
According to a statement by Route Commander Florence Okpe FRSC Public Education officer Ogun State Command, “at about 12:00pm, a commercial vehicle with registration number XF 365 MKD on transit along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway drove into the FRSC Command premises and the driver reported that one middle aged woman by name Ajoke Ahmed, a passenger in vehicle had gone into deep labour’.
The FRSC medical team at the Sagamu Accident and Emergency Clinic immediately examined her, but since the clinic is not equipped to take delivery, the ambulance was prepared to transport her to the nearest hospital.
Within this process the pregnant woman gave birth to a baby girl at about 12:15pm inside the Command’s Clinic.
A medical examination by the medical doctor confirmed the baby and mother to be in good condition.
Meanwhile the family of the new mother have been contacted as well.
