Recounting the ugly ordeal, an eye witness, Emmanuel Nyiam, said that the father of the little girl was carrying the wife and their little daughter on his motorcycle while on their way home during the heavy down pour. He said the man was trying to enter Alika Street, at Boji Boji Owa, through Old Lagos Asaba road, when the heavy flood swept the motorcycle away.
