Girl, 6, Mistakes Petrol For Kerosene, Burns Self While Practicing Cooking by Islie(op): 2:29pm On Mar 17, 2023

A six-year-old girl has sustained burns while practicing cooking together with her playmates in Abuja.

City & Crime gathered that the girl brought a gallon containing petrol which she thought was kerosene and emptied the content on the firewood she and her mates had gathered for practicing their cooking skills.

The father of the girl, Christopher Israel, told City & Crime at the Kubwa General Hospital where the girl is being admitted that the incident happened about two months ago but that the girl was yet to recover from the injuries.

He said the girl, Strong Tochukwu Israel, was initially rushed to a clinic within the community where she was first treated, but with little improvement two month into the incident.

“So, I was advised to take her to the Kubwa General Hospital for another round of treatment two weeks ago,’’ he said.

So sad.
Parents should please keep hazardous items out of reach of children.
Too harsh for a young girl to suffer this way.
May she recover soon

Too Bad.

If not that I've seen where a child went to buy kerosene but was sold petrol to, I'd probably have found it easy to throw stones.

One can never be careful enough when it comes to kids. Even 200% of care is not enough.

May she be healed.

If we had stable electricity, no one would be keeping fuel around the house easily. Shame of a country supported by masses for such a failure

When it comes to burns injury, local treatment is the best. Talking from experience.
