A four-month-old baby girl who fell off her mother's back while traveling on a motorcycle yesterday was crushed to death by a heavy duty truck at the Okorodafe Roundabout in Ughelli, Delta State, according to Vanguard.
Ese, the 30-something year old mother of the baby, was said to be struggling to adjust the wrapper with which she strapped the baby to her back, while the Okada was in motion.
