Three new babies have been born at the Lagos State Relief Camp, Agbowa, since the facility was established three weeks ago, according to a government official.
General Manager, Lagos State Emergency Management Agency, Femi Osanyintolu said the babies` safe delivery was a testimony to God's kindness and the efficient service delivery at the camp.
Safe arrival of babies, in whatever circumstance, is a thing of joy, that is why we assisted the families to celebrate the arrival of the babies, Osanyintolu says
The camp has a population of 1,006, consisting of 484 adults –including 48 pregnant women -- and 522 children.
The three mothers described their safe deliveries as miraculous, considering the trauma they went through during the recent floods in their respective areas.
