Young Boy Dies After Mother Accidentally Gave Him Kerosene Instead Of water

A mother Mrs. Ata Buhari, has mistakenly killed her only son of four children after she mistakenly gave him kerosene when he was thirsty instead of water..
The incident happened, last Tuesday, at about 10 am, at Iguma
Street, Off Medical Stores Road, Benin, Edo State when 18-month-olds Isreal Buhari had complained to his mother that he was thirsty.
The locally hired kerosene retailer, being ignorant of the actual content of said plastic bottle mistook it for an identical one that her older kids had brought to the shop earlier, and feed him with kerosene thinking it was water. After his first gulp, Isreal was said to have immediately spat out the remaining kerosene from his mouth calling the attention of his mother. His eyes turned pure white as he screamed uncontrollably a few minutes after this.With the aid of their neighbors, some volume of palm oil was immediately given to Isreal before he was rushed to a hospital, where he died a few hours later. The father of the child Mr. Buhari Hassan, 36, also from Kogi State, was said to have been called to the hospital where he met the corpse of his only son
