They were in their home, minding their business. Unknown to mother and daughter, there was terror on the street outside.
Robbers laid siege close to their house in Festac Town, Lagos, shooting indiscriminately from a machine gun reportedly mounted at 23 Road Junction.
It was like a movie scene as they shot their way into two banks, carting away millions of naira. Their stray bullets hit mother and daughter at Block 8, 23 Road House, killing the child instantly. The mother reportedly died an hour later because help came late.

Road Constructions
The Lagos State Government has approved the reconstruction of 114 inner-city roads in 20 local government areas (LGAs) and 37 local council development areas (LCDAs) at the cost of N19 billion.
The state government added that at least two strategic roads would be reconstructed in each local government, saying the decision to embark on the road reconstruction was in line with the ongoing local government reforms.
The state governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode, disclosed this at a meeting with the Executive Secretaries of LGAs and LCDAs he addressed alongside the Secretary to the State Government, Mr. Olatunji Bello at the Lagos House, Alausa.
