A twitter user, @mrmanodili have shared on his timeline how a mother he knew personally lost her only daughter after using a mixture of sniper, kerosene and camphor to wash her hair in order to treat a white patch on her baby’s scalp which is probably dandruff or head lice.
He wrote:
“A woman lost her daughter today. The child developed this whitish substances on her scalp and someone advised the mother to mix SNIPER, HYPO, KEROSENE AND CAMPHOR to rub on the head.
