…. Says death of 12-year-old boy painful loss to him
Adebola Akin-Bright, a 12-year-old kid who was admitted to the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH) on Tuesday with missing intestines, passed away. Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has expressed his sorrow over the loss.
Given the efforts made by the Lagos State Government to save the young boy, Governor Sanwo-Olu described the passing of Adebola as a painful loss, not only to the deceased’s family and friends but also to him personally and to the entire state, in a condolence message released on Wednesday by his chief press secretary, Mr. Gboyega Akosile.
The Governor expressed sympathy to the late Adebola’s friends and family, especially to his mother, Mrs. Deborah Abiodun, who sacrificed a lot as a mother to preserve her son’s life.
In addition, Governor Sanwo-Olu praised the medical staff at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital for treating Adebola for a number of months and providing him with the finest care possible until his passing on Tuesday night.
“I am saddened by the death of Adebola Akin-Bright, a promising 12-year-old boy who died at LASUTH after months of medical treatment to save his life. I had close contact with Adebola and his mother a few days ago at LASUTH and I was committed to doing everything humanly and medically possible to save him.
“The medical team at LASUTH did everything possible to save the boy. They gave him the best medical care based on our collective commitment to save Adebola but we lost him on Tuesday night.
“I am sad that we lost Adebola despite the huge efforts by his mother, Deborah Abiodun, the medical team at LASUTH and the Lagos State Government to save him. Adebola’s death is a painful and personal loss to me because of my commitment in conjunction with the medical team to save the boy.
“Adebola will be missed by his family, especially his beloved mother, Deborah Abiodun, who did what is expected of a true mother to save a child. I pray that God will give her and the entire family the grace to bear the irreplaceable loss of Adebola.”
