A resident of the area who spoke to Daily Sun explained that the dogs yanked out from a building in the area and pulled the baby from her mother’s back.

He explained that the dogs ate the baby ferociously while the mother was helpless. According to the source, the woman was going on her own when the dogs escaped from the building and jumped on the woman.

“The two foreign dogs came out from a completed but not inhabited building. They seized the baby from the woman’s back and ate the baby. 

“The woman was struggling while they were eating the baby. They descended on the woman after eating up the baby. They have injured the woman before she was rescued by the people,” sources said.

Osun  State Police Publlic Relations Officer (PPRO), Yemisi Opalola, said the 5-year-old girl did not survive, but efforts were on to arrest the owner of the dogs.
