Their death is as a result of Carbon monoxide poisoning. This is caused when carbon monoxide is breathed in, it enters their bloodstream and mixes with haemoglobin (the part of red blood cells that carry oxygen around your body), to form carboxyhaemoglobin.When this happens, the blood is no longer able to carry oxygen, and this lack of oxygen causes the body’s cells and tissue to fail and die. People do mistake of keeping generators in an enclosed place which is very wrong. 12 Likes 1 Share |

If the report is true then the couple were killed by Carbon Monoxide poisoning. It's a very toxic gas that can kill or seriously harm you if inhaled. Unfortunately thousands of people are killed every year all over the world from this. It is a colourless and odourless byproduct of incomplete combustion. Which makes it deadly as it strikes without any pre warnings. What you should look out for is symptoms of "CO" (Carbon Monoxide) poisoning whenever you are using any appliances that uses combustion and has emissions. This includes your Gas cooker. Generator. Gas Boiler. Even your car or motorcycle if used within a closed space with poor ventilation. The symptoms to watch out for when using any of the above is headaches,stomach pains,weakness, dizziness, nausea,shortness of breath,blurry vision,fainting. If you feel any of the above. Immediately distance yourself from the appliance and ventilate the area. Mild poisoning usually doesn't need medication but the appliance should be checked for faults. If you however were to sleep in the vicinity of a faulty appliance that is leaking Carbon Monoxide that may be your last sleep. Stay safe and spread the message! 12 Likes 1 Share |

At what point was an autopsy done? How did the police determine cause of death? How will CO poisoning kill and d corpses bloated all in less than 24hours? This is d easiest place to get away with murder. Illiterate ill-trained, ill-equipped police with techniques a voodoo witch doctor will envy. 5 Likes 1 Share |

This story is fishy. You expect me to believe that a whole health officer will do something like that? like it is their first time of using gen? There is more to the story, maybe someone tampered with something while they were asleep. 2 Likes |
