Nigerians have commended the police in Lagos for helping a distressed man to take his pregnant wife to hospital after she went into labour around 3am. The woman later gave birth a baby girl at a hospital in Obalende.
The Lagos State Police Command has posted some pictures on its twitter handle.
“About 3:00 a.m on Friday our officers in Ikoyi came across a man in distress. We accosted him and he told us his wife was in labour at home but he had no means of getting her to the hospital.
“He got into our vehicle and was rushed down to his home.
“Both man and wife were immediately taken to the hospital in Obalende. The officers went back to the couple’s residence an hour ago and found both mother and child doing well. It’s a girl,” the police tweeted.
