| FAITH OBINNA WITH A COPY OF ONE OF THE SCANS |
A 31-year-old nurse, Faith Obinna, has accused medical personnel of St. Raphael Divine Mercy Specialist Hospital, Ikorodu, Lagos State, of stealing her baby moments after delivery.
The distraught woman insisted that she delivered twins and
that one of them was stolen in the labour room of the hospital, which had
before now been fingered in the sale of the body parts of patients who died in
the healthcare facility, before she could recover from anaesthesia.
Obinna explained that anaesthesia was given to her before a
Caesarean Section was carried out on her to bring out the twins.
She said the anaesthesia was given to her even after she
had told doctors at the hospital she didn’t want it.
According to her, she had the CS on March 6, 2020 and
recovered to see the doctor presenting her with a baby, while she was expecting
twins.
She insisted that her second baby was stolen by the
hospital.
She further explained that after registering at the
hospital, she was asked to carry out three scans and each showed the two
babies.
She said even the heart beats of the two babies were
different and the laboratory technician showed her everything on the screen of
the scan machine.
The Obstetric scan report dated 26: 02: 2020 and which has
the doctor’s name as Otutuoja, indicated that the number of fetus in Faith were
twins.
The scan also showed that one of the babies was a boy, but
the sex of the other couldn’t be determined because its leg covered the sex
organ.
Obinna said: “On the first day I registered at the
hospital, one doctor Ade that attended to me asked me to go for scan.
“The scan showed twins.
“The pregnancy was then four months.
“The second scan was to determine the sex of the babies.
“One was a boy, but the technician couldn’t tell the sex of
the other baby because its leg covered the organ part.
“I was later handed over to Doctor Uzoma, who took care of
me until delivery.”
While calling for immediate help from well-meaning
Nigerians and the government of Lagos State, she said:
“I delivered on 6th March at Saint Raphael hospital, I had
caesarean section because I was pregnant for twins”.
“Before the cesarean session, I had done three scans in the
same hospital, which confirmed I was pregnant with twins.”
“On the day of the caesarean section, we were three women
who delivered their babies through caesarean section.”
“I was the only one they gave sleeping injection even when
I told the doctor before the time not to administer it but they did so that I
won’t know when they took my baby but when they brought the two babies out I
was still partially conscious because of the injection.”
Obinna explained that in the process of subsequent
ante-natal visits, Uzoma asked her to do another scan, which she did and it was
still confirmed she was going to have twins.
The hospital management is yet to officially give their own side of
the story. However a management staff who pleaded for anonymity explained
that the lady gave birth to a baby and not a set of twins.
