When are we going to get better, this country is in perils, from terrorist attacks to natural and man-made illnesses, the government ought to do something about this quickly.
There was confusion at Ogba Junior Grammar School, Lagos, on Thursday after about 22 pupils fell unconscious.
It was discovered that the incident was caused by a gaseous substance emitting from a neighbouring laboratory, close to the school. The chemical was said to have engulfed the entire school.
When news agencies visited the school premises, it was deserted. However, a security guard, who did not identify himself, said the incident occurred around 1pm.
He said, “I was just by the gate when I perceived this offensive smell. I quickly ran to a corner and covered my nose with my shirt.
“Pupils came running, saying some of their colleagues had fainted. When the smell subsided, teachers rallied around and rushed them to a hospital.
“I don’t know the exact number of pupils affected but they were over 20. A few minutes later, emergency officials came around to attend to the victims.”
We need serious help in this country before something more disastrous happens.
