Toyin, a suspected female ritualist who was set ablaze and killed by a mob for stealing a child, was saved, but she later died.
The mother who kidnapped an eight-month-old child from the Ebute-Metta neighbourhood of Lagos State, according to police spokesperson Benjamin Hundeyin, passed away in a hospital.
Hundeyin said Toyin was hospitalised at the Federal Medical Center, Ebute-Meta, because she was badly burnt by the angry mob that caught her engaging in the illicit act.
He added;
“The lady has died in hospital.”
