It was a moment of grief and joy as a woman delivered at the scene of accident in a downpour in Njeru.
At around 2pm, a nasty accident occurred at Nile Stage when a speeding vehicle, box body truck, lost control and rammed into a Toyota Wish and a motorcycle, killing the rider and two other passengers aboard the motorcycle.
However, a few minutes after the fatal accident, the scene turned into a “labor ward” as a yet-to-be identified woman who had no mother kit but had been referred from the Mbiko-based St Francis Hospital to Jinja Regional Referral Hospital for medical attention, delivered a bouncing baby boy at the stage.
The delivery was made possible by a group of women who formed a ring around their colleague in emergency situation as others helped her amidst a downpour. END
